Interface ParameterProcessorEnablerSearchSession

All Superinterfaces:

public interface ParameterProcessorEnablerSearchSession
extends ParameterProcessorEnablerQuerySession

This session provides methods for searching among ParameterProcessorEnabler objects. The search query is constructed using the ParameterProcessorEnableryQuery.

getParameterProcessorEnablersByQuery() is the basic search method and returns a list of ParameterProcessorEnablers. A more advanced search may be performed with getParameterProcessorEnablersBySearch(). It accepts a ParameterProcessorEnablerSearch in addition to the query for the purpose of specifying additional options affecting the entire search, such as configuration. getParameterProcessorEnablersBySearch() returns a ParameterProcessorEnablerSearchResults that can be used to access the resulting ParameterProcessorEnablerList or be used to perform a search within the result set through ParameterProcessorEnablerSearch.

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors for searching.

• federated configuration view: searches include parameter processor enablers in configurations of which this configuration is an ancestor in the configuration hierarchy
• isolated configuration view: searches are restricted to parameter processor enablers in this configuration

ParameterProcessorEnablers may have a query record indicated by their respective record types. The query record is accessed via the ParameterProcessorEnablerQuery.

Method Detail

getParameterProcessorEnablerSearch

ParameterProcessorEnablerSearch getParameterProcessorEnablerSearch()

Gets a parameter processor enabler search.

Returns:

the parameter processor enabler search

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getParameterProcessorEnablerSearchOrder

ParameterProcessorEnablerSearchOrder getParameterProcessorEnablerSearchOrder()

Gets a parameter processor enabler search order. The ParameterProcessorEnablerSearchOrder is supplied to a ParameterProcessorEnablerSearch to specify the ordering of results.

Returns:

the parameter processor enabler search order

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getParameterProcessorEnablersBySearch

ParameterProcessorEnablerSearchResults getParameterProcessorEnablersBySearch(ParameterProcessorEnablerQuery parameterProcessorEnablerQuery,
                                                                           ParameterProcessorEnablerSearch parameterProcessorEnablerSearch)
                                                                             throws OperationFailedException,
                                                                                    PermissionDeniedException

Gets the search results matching the given search query using the given search.

Parameters:

parameterProcessorEnablerQuery - the parameter processor enabler query

parameterProcessorEnablerSearch - the parameter processor enabler search

Returns:

the returned search results

Throws:

NullArgumentException - parameterProcessorEnablerQuery or parameterProcessorEnablerSearch is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

UnsupportedException - parameterProcessorEnablerQuery or parameterProcessorEnablerSearch is not of this service

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getParameterProcessorEnablerQueryFromInspector

ParameterProcessorEnablerQuery getParameterProcessorEnablerQueryFromInspector(ParameterProcessorEnablerQueryInspector parameterProcessorEnablerQueryInspector)

Parameters:

parameterProcessorEnablerQueryInspector - a parameter processor enabler query inspector

Returns:

the parameter processor enabler query

Throws:

NullArgumentException - parameterProcessorEnablerQueryInspector is null

UnsupportedException - parameterProcessorEnablerQueryInspector is not of this service

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.
