## Class ContainerBase

- java.lang.Object
- - org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleBase
  - - org.apache.catalina.util.LifecycleMBeanBase
    - - org.apache.catalina.core.ContainerBase

- All Implemented Interfaces:
    `javax.management.MBeanRegistration`, `Container`, `JmxEnabled`, `Lifecycle`
  Direct Known Subclasses:
    `StandardContext`, `StandardEngine`, `StandardHost`, `StandardWrapper`

      public abstract class ContainerBase
      extends LifecycleMBeanBase
      implements Container

  Abstract implementation of the Container interface, providing common functionality required by nearly every implementation. Classes extending this base class must may implement a replacement for `invoke()`.

  All subclasses of this abstract base class will include support for a Pipeline object that defines the processing to be performed for each request received by the `invoke()` method of this class, utilizing the "Chain of Responsibility" design pattern. A subclass should encapsulate its own processing functionality as a `Valve`, and configure this Valve into the pipeline by calling `setBasic()`.

  This implementation fires property change events, per the JavaBeans design pattern, for changes in singleton properties. In addition, it fires the following `ContainerEvent` events to listeners who register themselves with `addContainerListener()`:

  ContainerEvents fired by this implementation
  Type | Data | Description
  --- | --- | ---
  `addChild` | `Container` | Child container added to this Container.
  ``pipeline`.addValve` | `Valve` | Valve added to this Container.
  `removeChild` | `Container` | Child container removed from this Container.
  ``pipeline`.removeValve` | `Valve` | Valve removed from this Container.
  `start` | `null` | Container was started.
  `stop` | `null` | Container was stopped.

  Subclasses that fire additional events should document them in the class comments of the implementation class.

      Description copied from class: `LifecycleMBeanBase`
      Sub-classes wishing to perform additional clean-up should override this method, ensuring that super.destroyInternal() is the last call in the overriding method.
      Overrides:
        `destroyInternal` in class `LifecycleMBeanBase`
      Throws:
        `LifecycleException` - If the destruction fails

    - #### logAccess

          public void logAccess​(Request request,
                                Response response,
                                long time,
                                boolean useDefault)

      Check this container for an access log and if none is found, look to the parent. If there is no parent and still none is found, use the NoOp access log.
      Specified by:
        `logAccess` in interface `Container`
      Parameters:
        `request` - Request (associated with the response) to log
        `response` - Response (associated with the request) to log
        `time` - Time taken to process the request/response in milliseconds (use 0 if not known)
        `useDefault` - Flag that indicates that the request/response should be logged in the engine's default access log

    - #### getAccessLog

          public AccessLog getAccessLog()

      Description copied from interface: `Container`
      Obtain the AccessLog to use to log a request/response that is destined for this container. This is typically used when the request/response was handled (and rejected) earlier in the processing chain so that the request/response still appears in the correct access logs.
      Specified by:
        `getAccessLog` in interface `Container`
      Returns:
        The AccessLog to use for a request/response destined for this container

    - #### addValve

          public void addValve​(Valve valve)

      Convenience method, intended for use by the digester to simplify the process of adding Valves to containers. See `Pipeline.addValve(Valve)` for full details. Components other than the digester should use `getPipeline()`.`addValve(Valve)` in case a future implementation provides an alternative method for the digester to use.
      Parameters:
        `valve` - Valve to be added
      Throws:
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if this Container refused to accept the specified Valve
        `java.lang.IllegalArgumentException` - if the specified Valve refuses to be associated with this Container
        `java.lang.IllegalStateException` - if the specified Valve is already associated with a different Container

    - #### backgroundProcess

          public void backgroundProcess()

      Execute a periodic task, such as reloading, etc. This method will be invoked inside the classloading context of this container. Unexpected throwables will be caught and logged.
      Specified by:
        `backgroundProcess` in interface `Container`

    - #### getCatalinaBase

          public java.io.File getCatalinaBase()

      Description copied from interface: `Container`
      Obtain the location of CATALINA_BASE.
      Specified by:
        `getCatalinaBase` in interface `Container`
      Returns:
        The location of CATALINA_BASE.

    - #### getCatalinaHome

          public java.io.File getCatalinaHome()

      Description copied from interface: `Container`
      Obtain the location of CATALINA_HOME.
      Specified by:
        `getCatalinaHome` in interface `Container`
      Returns:
        The location of CATALINA_HOME.

    - #### fireContainerEvent

          public void fireContainerEvent​(java.lang.String type,
                                         java.lang.Object data)

      Notify all container event listeners that a particular event has occurred for this Container. The default implementation performs this notification synchronously using the calling thread.
      Specified by:
        `fireContainerEvent` in interface `Container`
      Parameters:
        `type` - Event type
        `data` - Event data
