public abstract class RTKBase

extends org.omg.CORBA.portable.ObjectImpl

RTK Base -- Base of the registrar tool kit. All RTK classes inherit from this one. Defines: debug method and constants; date formats. Note that despite this class extending a CORBA Object class, it does not make any promises of CORBA functionality. Extension of the CORBA ObjectImpl was required because of the methods required by the RTK IDL interfaces.

Field Detail

RTK_VERSION

public static final java.lang.String RTK_VERSION

RTK Version number.

CRLF

protected static final java.lang.String CRLF

Defined as "\r\n". Used to complete a request to the EPP Server.

DEBUG_NONE

public static final int DEBUG_NONE

Debug level for no debug output.

DEBUG_LEVEL_ONE

public static final int DEBUG_LEVEL_ONE

Debug level for sending exceptions to System.err.

DEBUG_LEVEL_TWO

public static final int DEBUG_LEVEL_TWO

Debug level for debugging points on interest throughout the RTK code, including display of XML messages to and from the EPP Server

DEBUG_LEVEL_THREE

public static final int DEBUG_LEVEL_THREE

Debug level for showing all debugging output, which include entry and exit of methods.

UTC_FMT

public static final java.text.DateFormat UTC_FMT

DateFormat for "yyyy-MM-dd'T'hh:mm:ss.0'Z'". This is the format returned by the EPP Server in timestamps (eg. expiration date, last modified date, etc...). It can be used to convert String dates into Date objects. eg:

java.util.Date date_object = UTC_FMT.parse(date_string); 

DATE_FMT

public static final java.text.DateFormat DATE_FMT

DateFormat for "yyyy-MM-dd". It can be used to convert String dates into Date objects and vice versa. eg:

String date_string = DATE_FMT.format(date_object);

Method Detail

setDebugLevel

public static void setDebugLevel(int value)

Accessor method for the debug level. Use DEBUG_LEVEL_NONE, DEBUG_LEVEL_ONE, DEBUG_LEVEL_TWO, or DEBUG_LEVEL_THREE.

Parameters:

value - The debug level

getDebugLevel

public static int getDebugLevel()

Accessor method for the version

Returns:

int the current debug level

debug

protected void debug(int level,
                     java.lang.String method_name,
                     java.lang.String message)

Prints a debug message to System.err. If the set debug level is greater than or equal to the given level, then the message is printed. The print out includes the class name, the given method name, the current date and time, the given debug level of this message, and the message itself.

Parameters:

level - the debug level of this message

method_name - the method name String

message - the message String

debug

protected void debug(int level,
                     java.lang.String method_name,
                     java.lang.Exception xcp)

Prints an exception to System.err, including its stack trace. If the set debug level is greater than or equal to the given level, then the exception is reported is reported. The print out includes the class name, the given method name, the current date and time, the given debug level of this exception, the exception class name and the exception's message. This is followed by the stack trace.

Parameters:

level - the debug level of this message

method_name - the method name String

xcp - the exception to be reported

_ids

public java.lang.String[] _ids()

Method required by ObjectImpl and the CORBA Object interface. Always returns null. It's only here to satisfy the CORBA requirements of the IDL usage.

Overrides:

_ids in class org.omg.CORBA.portable.ObjectImpl

getRTKProperties

public static java.util.Properties getRTKProperties()
                                             throws java.io.FileNotFoundException,
                                                    java.io.IOException

Returns the global properties for the RTK. By default the properties are empty. If the RTK user specifies the system property "rtk.props.file", then that file will be loaded. If there is a problem loading that file, then an exception will be thrown.
