Interface ContributionCreation

  • All Known Implementing Classes:
    ContributionTrackingService
    public interface ContributionCreation
    It is a process implied within the creation of a contribution. Usually such process is about the creation of some transverses resources that are used by the contribution being created such as attachments or PdC classification for example. The process should be invoked only when one or more contributions are created, not when a component instance is created from a template with some predefined contributions.

    Each implementation of this interface is invoked by the generic contribution creation process to perform their specific task. The process listens for events about contribution creation and so each more concrete business service working on a given type of contribution has to send such events once they created a contribution. Usually, this interface should be implemented by each transverse services in Silverpeas Core.

    For each contribution, whatever it is, different kind of transverses resources can be created and managed. When such a contribution is then created in Silverpeas, those additional resources require to be then also created. Nevertheless, both the generic contribution creation process and the contribution itself aren't usually aware of them. It is then the responsibility of the services behind the different kinds of resources to take in charge the creation of the resources related to the contribution that has been created. For doing, they have to implement this interface.
