Interface CySessionReader

  • All Superinterfaces:
    Task

    public interface CySessionReader
    extends Task
    An extension of the Task interface that returns a org.cytoscape.property.session.Cysession object. The reader does nothing beyond create the org.cytoscape.property.session.Cysession object and does NOT use the org.cytoscape.property.session.Cysession object to define the state of Cytoscape - that is managed by the CySessionManager. Instances of this interface are created by InputStreamTaskFactory objects registered as OSGi services, which are in turn processed by associated reader manager objects that distinguish InputStreamTaskFactories based on the DataCategory associated with the CyFileFilter.

    Module: io-api

    Cytoscape Backwards Compatibility (SPI Interface): We expect that this interface will be implemented. Therefore to maintain backwards compatibility this interface will only be modified for major version updates.
