Constructor Summary
AbstractModule()
           
 
Method Summary
 void moduleDestroy()
          Destroys the module. The module should free all resources. The module will not be used after this call.
 void moduleInit(java.util.Map modules)
          Initialization phase TWO of the module. Its individual dependencies ARE met. This is the main initialization phase and the module can use other modules, on which it depends.
 void modulePrepare(java.util.Properties properties)
          Initialization phase ONE of the module. Its individual dependencies ARE NOT met. To support multi-threading more efficiently, the module can prepare itself as much as possible at this point.
 void moduleStart()
          The module should activate itself if nessesary (depending on the application only few modules have to be started). All Modules are already initialized when calling this method.
