Interface ProductRegistryService

public interface ProductRegistryService

Use ProductRegistryService to obtain read-only access to the Global Component Registry.

Methods to retrieve Products and Components are available. In most of them, use an instance of the SoftwareObjectSearchCriteria class to refine your search.

The ProductRegistryService can be obtained through the one of the custom code Proxy objects by a request for the ProductRegistryService implementation class, as follows:

ProductRegistryService service = (ProductRegistryService) proxy.getService(ProductRegistryService.class);
