Module Interface
Modules are created by the implementation of the IModule interface. IModule is
defined in the Slb.Ocean.Core namespace. Modules must also implement
IDisposable defined by the Microsoft System.ComponentModel namespace to
release any allocated unmanaged resources.
The IModule interface defines five methods of the module lifecycle phases and inherits
from IDisposable. The phases and their methods are:
• Construction (default constructor)
• Initialization (Initialize)
• Integration (Integrate)
• Presentation integration (IntegratePresentation)
• Disintegration (Disintegrate)
• Disposal (Dispose)
The order of execution of the module lifecycle phases by the Ocean Core is important and
is shown in the list above. Also important is the execution of the phases when multiple
modules are present. The first phase of all modules is completed before the next phase of
any module is started. This execution order is important in eliminating dependencies
