  • Method Details

    • isRunning

      boolean isRunning()
      Returns:
      Whether the component is running

    • start

      @NonNull default T start()
      Starts the lifecyle component.
      Returns:
      This lifecycle component

    • stop

      @NonNull default T stop()
      Stops the life cycle component.
      Returns:
      This lifecycle component

    • close

      default void close()
      Delegates to stop().
      Specified by:
      close in interface AutoCloseable
      Specified by:
      close in interface Closeable

    • refresh

      @NonNull default T refresh()
      Refreshes the current life cycle object. Effectively this calls stop() followed by start().
      Returns:
      This lifecycle component
