ContextService

```
public interface ContextService
```
The ContextService provides methods for creating dynamic proxy objects (as defined by java.lang.reflect.Proxy). ContextService also creates proxy objects for functional interfaces (such as Function) that can be used as completion stage actions. Proxy objects run with the addition of context typically associated with applications executing in a Jakarta™ EE environment. Examples of such context are classloading, namespace, security, etc.
The proxy objects follow the same rules as defined for the java.lang.reflect.Proxy class with the following additions:
- The proxy instance will retain the context of the creator's thread.
- The proxy instance will implement all of the interfaces specified on the createContextualProxy methods.
- The object to have a proxy instance created for should not be a component managed by the Jakarta EE Product Provider, such as a web component or a Jakarta Enterprise Bean.
- All interface method invocations on a proxy instance run in the creator's context with the exception of hashCode, equals, toString and all other methods declared in Object.
- The proxy instance must implement Serializable if the proxied object instance is serializable.
- The proxied object instance must implement Serializable if the proxy instance is serialized.
- Execution properties can be stored with the proxy instance. Custom property keys must not begin with "jakarta.enterprise.concurrent.".
- Execution properties are to be used for controlling how various contextual information is retrieved and applied to the thread. Although application components can store arbitrary property keys and values, it is not recommended. Jakarta EE product providers may impose limits to the size of the keys and values.
For example, to contextualize a single completion stage action such that it is able to access the namespace of the application component,
```
 contextSvc = InitialContext.doLookup("java:comp/DefaultContextService");
 stage2 = stage1.thenApply(contextSvc.contextualFunction(i -> {
     DataSource ds = InitialContext.doLookup("java:comp/env/dsRef");
     try (Connection con = ds.getConnection()) {
         PreparedStatement stmt = con.prepareStatement(sql);
         stmt.setInt(1, i);
         ResultSet result = stmt.executeQuery();
         return result.next() ? result.getInt(1) : 0;
     }
 }));
 
```

```
<T> T createContextualProxy(T instance,
                            java.lang.Class<T> intf)
```
    Creates a new contextual object proxy for the input object instance.
    Each method invocation will have the context of the application component instance that created the contextual object proxy.
    The contextual object is useful when developing or using Java™ SE threading mechanisms propagating events to other component instances.
    If the application component that created the proxy is not started or deployed, all methods on reflected interfaces may throw an IllegalStateException.
    For example, to execute a Runnable which is contextualized with the creator's context using a Java™ SE ExecutorService:
```
  public class MyRunnable implements Runnable {
      public void run() {
          System.out.println("MyRunnable.run with Jakarta EE Context available.");
      }
  }

  InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();
  ThreadFactory threadFactory = (ThreadFactory) ctx
           .lookup("java:comp/env/concurrent/ThreadFactory");

  ContextService ctxService = (ContextService) ctx
           .lookup("java:comp/env/concurrent/ContextService");

  MyRunnable myRunnableInstance = ...;

  Runnable rProxy = ctxService.createContextualProxy(myRunnableInstance, Runnable.class);

  ExecutorService exSvc = Executors.newThreadPool(10, threadFactory);

  Future f = exSvc.submit(rProxy);
 
```
    Type Parameters:
    
    T - the type of the instance to proxy
    
    Parameters:
    
    instance - the instance of the object to proxy.
    
    intf - the interface that the proxy should implement.
    
    Returns:
    
    a proxy for the input object that implements the specified interface.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - - if the intf argument is null or the instance does not implement the specified interface.
    
    java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - - if the intf interface is serializable but a thread context type does not support serialization.
  - createContextualProxy
```
java.lang.Object createContextualProxy(java.lang.Object instance,
                                       java.lang.Class<?>... interfaces)
```
    Creates a new contextual object proxy for the input object instance.
    This method is similar to <T> T createContextualProxy(T instance, Class<T> intf) except that this method can be used if the proxy has to support multiple interfaces.
    Example:
```
  public class MyRunnableWork implements Runnable, SomeWorkInterface {
      public void run() {
          System.out.println("MyRunnableWork.run with Jakarta EE Context available.");
      }
      public void someWorkInterfaceMethod() {
          ...
      }
  }

  ThreadFactory threadFactory = ...;

  ContextService ctxService = ...;

  MyRunnableWork myRunnableWorkInstance = ...;

  Object proxy = ctxService.createContextualProxy(myRunnableWorkInstance,
                                   Runnable.class, SomeWorkInterface.class);

  // call SomeWorkInterface method on the proxy
  ((SomeWorkInterface) proxy).someWorkInterfaceMethod();

  ExecutorService exSvc = Executors.newThreadPool(10, threadFactory);

  // submit the proxy as a Runnable to the ExecutorService
  Future f = exSvc.submit( (Runnable)proxy);
 
```
    Parameters:
    
    instance - the instance of the object to proxy.
    
    interfaces - the interfaces that the proxy should implement.
    
    Returns:
    
    a proxy for the input object that implements all of the specified interfaces.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - - if the interfaces argument is null or the instance does not implement all the specified interfaces.
    
    java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - - if any of the interfaces are serializable but a thread context type does not support serialization.
  - createContextualProxy
```
<T> T createContextualProxy(T instance,
                            java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> executionProperties,
                            java.lang.Class<T> intf)
```
    Creates a new contextual object proxy for the input object instance.
    The contextual object is useful when developing or using Java™ SE threading mechanisms propagating events to other component instances.
    If the application component that created the proxy is not started or deployed, all methods on reflected interfaces may throw an IllegalStateException.
    This method accepts a Map object which allows the contextual object creator to define what contexts or behaviors to capture when creating the contextual object. The specified properties will remain with the contextual object.
    For example, to call a Message Driven Bean (MDB) with the sender's context, but within the MDB's transaction:
```
 public class MyServlet ... {
     public void doPost() throws NamingException, JMSException {
        InitialContext ctx = new InitialContext();

        // Get the ContextService that only propagates
        // security context.
        ContextService ctxSvc = (ContextService)
            ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/SecurityContext");

        // Set any custom context data through execution properties
        Map<String, String> execProps = new HashMap<>();
        execProps.put("vendor_a.security.tokenexpiration", "15000");
        // Specify that contextual object should run inside the current
        // transaction.  If we have a failure, we don't want to consume
        // the message.
        execProps.put(ManagedTask.TRANSACTION, "USE_TRANSACTION_OF_EXECUTION_THREAD");

        ProcessMessage msgProcessor =
            ctxSvc.createContextualProxy(new MessageProcessor(), execProps,
            ProcessMessage.class);

        ConnectionFactory cf = (ConnectionFactory)
             ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/MyTopicConnectionFactory");
        Destination dest = (Destination) ctx.lookup("java:comp/env/MyTopic");
        Connection con = cf.createConnection();

        Session session = con.createSession(true, Session.AUTO_ACKNOWLEDGE);
        MessageProducer producer = session.createProducer(dest);

        Message msg = session.createObjectMessage((Serializable)msgProcessor);
        producer.send(dest, msg);
        ...

    }

  public class MyMDB ... {
    public void onMessage(Message msg) {
        // Get the ProcessMessage contextual object from the message.
        ObjectMessage omsg = (ObjectMessage)msg;
        ProcessMessage msgProcessor = (ProcessMessage)omsg.getObject();

        // Process the message in the specified context.
        msgProcessor.processMessage(msg);
    }
  }

  public interface  ProcessMessage {
      public void processMessage(Message msg);
  }

  public class MessageProcessor implements ProcessMessage, Serializable {
      public void processMessage(Message msg) {
          // Process the message with the application container
          // context that sent the message.

      }
  }

```
    Creates a new contextual object proxy for the input object instance.
    This method is similar to <T> T createContextualProxy(T instance, Map<String, String> executionProperties, Class<T> intf) except that this method can be used if the proxy has to support multiple interfaces.
    
    Parameters:
    
    instance - the instance of the object to proxy.
    
    executionProperties - the properties to use when creating and running the context object.
    
    interfaces - the interfaces that the proxy should implement.
    
    Returns:
    
    a proxy for the input object that implements all of the specified interfaces.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - - if the interfaces argument is null or the instance does not implement all the specified interfaces.
    
    java.lang.UnsupportedOperationException - - if any of the interfaces are serializable but a thread context type does not support serialization.
  - currentContextExecutor
```
java.util.concurrent.Executor currentContextExecutor()
```
    Captures thread context as an Executor that runs tasks on the same thread from which executeis invoked but with context that is captured from the thread that invokes currentContextExecutor.
    
    Example usage:
```
 Executor contextSnapshot = contextSvc.currentContextExecutor();
 ...
 // from another thread, or after thread context has changed,
 contextSnapshot.execute(() -> obj.doSomethingThatNeedsContext());
 contextSnapshot.execute(() -> doSomethingElseThatNeedsContext(x, y));
 
```
    The returned Executor must raise IllegalArgumentException if an already-contextualized Runnable is supplied to its execute method.
    Returns:
    
    an executor that wraps the execute method with context.

  - getExecutionProperties
```
java.util.Map<java.lang.String,java.lang.String> getExecutionProperties(java.lang.Object contextualProxy)
```
    Gets the current execution properties on the context proxy instance.
    
    Parameters:
    
    contextualProxy - the contextual proxy instance to retrieve the execution properties.
    
    Returns:
    
    A copy of the current contextual object execution properties, or null if the contextualProxy is created without specifying any execution properties.
    
    Throws:
    
    java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - thrown if the input contextualProxy is not a valid contextual object proxy created with the createContextualProxy method.
  - withContextCapture
```
<T> java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture<T> withContextCapture(java.util.concurrent.CompletableFuture<T> stage)
```
    Returns a new CompletableFuture that is completed by the completion of the specified stage.
    
    The new completable future gets its default asynchronous execution facility from this ContextService, using the same ManagedExecutorService if this ContextService was obtained by ManagedExecutorService.getContextService().
    
    When dependent stages are created from the new completable future, and from the dependent stages of those stages, and so on, thread context is captured and/or cleared by the ContextService. This guarantees that the action performed by each stage always runs under the thread context of the code that creates the stage, unless the user explicitly overrides by supplying a pre-contextualized action.
    
    Invocation of this method does not impact thread context propagation for the originally supplied completable future or any other dependent stages directly created from it (not using this method).
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    T - completable future result type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    stage - a completable future whose completion triggers completion of the new completable future that is created by this method.
    
    Returns:
    
    the new completable future.
    
    Since:
    
    3.0

```
<T> java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<T> withContextCapture(java.util.concurrent.CompletionStage<T> stage)
```
    Returns a new CompletionStage that is completed by the completion of the specified stage.
    
    The new completion stage gets its default asynchronous execution facility from this ContextService, using the same ManagedExecutorService if this ContextService was obtained by ManagedExecutorService.getContextService(), otherwise using the DefaultManagedExecutorService.
    
    When dependent stages are created from the new completion stage, and from the dependent stages of those stages, and so on, thread context is captured and/or cleared by the ContextService. This guarantees that the action performed by each stage always runs under the thread context of the code that creates the stage, unless the user explicitly overrides by supplying a pre-contextualized action.
    
    Invocation of this method does not impact thread context propagation for the originally supplied stage or any other dependent stages directly created from it (not using this method).
    
    Type Parameters:
    
    T - completion stage result type.
    
    Parameters:
    
    stage - a completion stage whose completion triggers completion of the new stage that is created by this method.
    
    Returns:
    
    the new completion stage.
