Interface IMetaContext

All Superinterfaces:
IComponent, IComponentProvider, IInitializable, IURIResolver
public interface IMetaContext extends IComponentProvider
The meta context provides the various meta services for a given datasource. Each meta context is a singleton for the given datasource, therefore you can use ==, although Object.equals(java.lang.Object) is supported. This is a component as well as a component provider. Not all services are documented since some are internal system services and not for public use, and may not be supported in future versions.
