public NegotiationPartyInternal(ParticipantRepItem partyRepItem,
                                ProfileRepItem profileRepItem,
                                Session session,
                                SessionsInfo info,

                                NegotiatorException

Creates a new NegotiationParty from repository items and initializes it.

Parameters:

partyRepItem - the party reference

profileRepItem - the profile to use for this party

session - the session in which this runs

agentID - the unique agentId to use, or null. If null, a unique ID will be generated. For all default implementations, this has either the format "ClassName" if only one such an agent exists (in case of mediator for example [mediator always has the name "mediator"]), "Party N" or it has the format "ClassName@N" with N a unique integer if multiple agents of the same type can exists.

info - a SessionsInfo object that contains info shared with other sessions.

Throws:

RepositoryException

NegotiatorException
