Interface CriticalComponent

public interface CriticalComponent

CriticalComponent is an interface that can be used to denote a component of functionality that is 'critical' to the nature of the system. If a component implements CriticalComponent then it must state its name as well as its criticalComponentTimeout. The name is a unique identifier in the system. The timeout is a length of time in milliseconds that the CriticalComponent must check in with the WatchdogService. If the CriticalComponent goes for a time period of greater than this timeout, based on the (@link WatchdogService } configuration it will perform some action (such as rebooting the system).

Method Summary
