Reference of such service is to be looked upon in JNDI server. * Context / Initial Context -JNDI Context, carries the reference to service used for lookup purpose. * Service Locator - Service Locator is a single point of contact to get services by JNDI lookup, caching the services. * Cache - Cache to store references of services to reuse them * Client - Client is the object who invokes the services via ServiceLocator. */ public class ServiceLocatorPattern { static interface Service { public String getName(); public void execute(); } static class Service1 implements Service { public void execute(){ System.out.println("Executing Service1"); } @Override public String getName() { return "Service1"; } } static class Service2 implements Service { public void execute(){ System.out.println("Executing Service2"); } @Override public String getName() { return "Service2"; } } static class InitialContext { public Object lookup(String jndiName){ if(jndiName.equalsIgnoreCase("SERVICE1")){ System.out.println("Looking up and creating a new Service1 object"); return new Service1(); }else if (jndiName.equalsIgnoreCase("SERVICE2")){ System.out.println("Looking up and creating a new Service2 object"); return new Service2(); } return null; } } static class Cache { private List<Service> services; public Cache(){ services = new ArrayList<Service>(); } public Service getService(String serviceName){ for (Service service : services) { if(service.getName().equalsIgnoreCase(serviceName)){ System.out.println("Returning cached "+serviceName+" object"); return service; } } return null; } public void addService(Service newService){ boolean exists = false; for (Service service : services) { if(service.getName().equalsIgnoreCase(newService.getName())){ exists = true; } } if(!exists){ services.add(newService); } } } static class ServiceLocator { private static Cache cache; static { cache = new Cache(); } public static Service getService(String jndiName){ Service service = cache.getService(jndiName); if(service != null){ return service; } InitialContext context = new InitialContext(); Service service1 = (Service)context.lookup(jndiName); cache.addService(service1); return service1; } } public static void main(String[] args) { Service service = ServiceLocator.getService("Service1"); service.execute(); service = ServiceLocator.getService("Service2"); service.execute(); service = ServiceLocator.getService("Service1"); service.execute(); service = ServiceLocator.getService("Service2"); service.execute(); } }
