    Method

    Determines whether the specified repository is accessible if the system was in offline mode.
  • Method Details

    • checkOffline

      Determines whether the specified repository is accessible if the system was in offline mode. A simple implementation might unconditionally throw RepositoryOfflineException to block all remote repository access when in offline mode. More sophisticated implementations might inspect configuration properties of the session to check for some kind of whitelist that allows certain remote repositories even when offline. At any rate, the session's current offline state is irrelevant to the outcome of the check.
      Parameters:
      session - The repository session during which the check is made, must not be null.
      repository - The remote repository to check for offline access, must not be null.
      Throws:
      RepositoryOfflineException - If the repository is not accessible in offline mode. If the method returns normally, the repository is considered accessible even in offline mode.
