Interface ContentAccessor
- All Known Implementing Classes:
- URLContentAccessor
public interface ContentAccessor
An object capable of making content accessible via an InputStream.
For example, a ContentAccessor might retrieve content from a
website via a URL, a database or file storage, a remote object
such as another cache, or even dynamically generate the content
upon demand.
As yet another possibility, a ContentAccessor object
may potentially attempt to access the content from several
different sources sequentially until it is successful.
