With the JavaBeansTM Activation Framework standard extension, developers
|
|
who use JavaTM technology can take advantage of standard services to
|
|
determine the type of an arbitrary piece of data, encapsulate access to
|
|
it, discover the operations available on it, and to instantiate the
|
|
appropriate bean to perform said operation(s). For example, if a browser
|
|
obtained a JPEG image, this framework would enable the browser to identify
|
|
that stream of data as an JPEG image, and from that type, the browser
|
|
could locate and instantiate an object that could manipulate, or view that
|
|
image.
