Method Detail

newInstance

public static AndroMDA newInstance()

Gets a new instance of AndroMDA.

Returns:

the new instance of AndroMDA.

run

public void run(java.net.URL configurationUri)

Runs AndroMDA with the given configuration.

Parameters:

configurationUri - the URI to the configuration file that configures AndroMDA.

run

public void run(java.io.InputStream configurationStream)

Runs AndroMDA with the given configuration.

Parameters:

configurationStream - the InputStream that contains the configuration contents for configuring AndroMDA.

run

public void run(java.lang.String configuration)

Runs AndroMDA with the given configuration.

Parameters:

configuration - the String that contains the configuration contents for configuring AndroMDA.

initialize

public void initialize(Configuration configuration)

Initializes AndroMDA without running the engine.

Parameters:

configuration - the configuration from which to initialize AndroMDA

initialize
