Method Detail

read

void read(File file)
          throws RemoteException,
                 IOException

Download from the data conversation. This is a wrapper for DataStagerResource.read() which writes the result to a file.

Throws:

RemoteException

IOException

copyFrom

void copyFrom(DataConversation source)
              throws RemoteException

Copy from another data stager to this one. This is a wrapper for DataStagerResource.copyTo(org.apache.axis.message.addressing.EndpointReferenceType) which takes a DataConversation. It automatically includes the certificate of the source in the EPR, allowing transfers between services which don't know each other.

Throws:

RemoteException

copyTo

void copyTo(DataConversation target)
            throws RemoteException

Copy to another data stager from this one. This is a wrapper for DataStagerResource.copyTo(org.apache.axis.message.addressing.EndpointReferenceType) which takes a DataConversation. It automatically includes the certificate of the source in the EPR, allowing transfers between services which don't know each other.

Throws:

RemoteException
