Constructor Detail

AbstractDriver

protected AbstractDriver(Map info)

Constructs a new driver. Use of this constructor ensures that the PropertyBearing.KEY_CLASS property is always set.

Method Detail

getDriverName

public String getDriverName()

All drivers should provide a property named #KEY_DIVERNAME. If it is not set, we return the class name here.

Specified by:

getDriverName in interface Driver

equals

public boolean equals(Object driver)

Two drivers are equal if their class is equal and their names match

Overrides:

equals in class Object

hashCode

public int hashCode()

Hashin is done with the driver name.

Overrides:

hashCode in class Object

createDriver

public static final Driver createDriver(Map<String,String> prop)

Creates a new driver instance using the class key found in the properties. If the PropertyBearing.KEY_CLASS property is defined, a new driver with the stated class name is created, the supplied properties used as an argument in the constructor.
