You can use the E2E Bridge to implement a Java callback service.

In contrast to the Java Adapter, which allows calling a static Java method out of the Bridge context, the Java callback described in this chapter works different: On startup of the xUML service, a Java object is created, initialized and started. The Java object triggers callbacks within the xUML service that do something.
The following example illustrates this mechanism: Text entered into a simple Java application frontend is processed by a Bridge service.

Service Access Sequences

The sequence diagram below shows the execution process of a Java service callback.

Some Example Details

The above mentioned example contains the following implementation details:

Figure: Java Frontend represented by a Simple Java Window

The text entered into this dialog will be given back to the Bridge service via a callback on clicking Send to Bridge.
The callback triggers the sendText operation of the xUML service.

The requirements to allow this behavior are described in detail in the following chapters.
