Method Detail

getMapId

Id getMapId()

Gets the Map Id associated with this session.

Returns:

the Map Id associated with this session

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getMap

Map getMap()
           throws OperationFailedException,
                  PermissionDeniedException

Gets the Map associated with this session.

Returns:

the map

Throws:

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

canLookupRoutes

boolean canLookupRoutes()

Tests if this user can query routes. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known all methods in this session will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED. This is intended as a hint to an application that may not offer lookup operations to unauthorized users.

Returns:

false if routing methods are not authorized, true otherwise

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

useFederatedMapView

void useFederatedMapView()

Federates the view for methods in this session. A federated view will include paths in maps which are children of this map in the map hierarchy.

Compliance:

mandatory - This method is must be implemented.

useIsolatedMapView

void useIsolatedMapView()

Isolates the view for methods in this session. An isolated view restricts retrievals to this map only.

Compliance:

mandatory - This method is must be implemented.

getRoutingTypes

TypeList getRoutingTypes()

Gets the supported routing types.

Returns:

a list of routing types

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

supportsRoutingType

boolean supportsRoutingType(Type routingType)

Tests if the given routing type is supported.

Parameters:

routingType - a routing type

Returns:

true of the routing type is supported, false otherwise

Throws:

NullArgumentException - routingType is null

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getShortestRoute

Route getShortestRoute(Id locationId,
                     Id anotherLocationId,
                     Type routingType)
                       throws NotFoundException,
                              OperationFailedException,
                              PermissionDeniedException

Gets the shortest route between the two given locations.

Parameters:

locationId - the given location Id

anotherLocationId - the given location Id

routingType - a routing type

Returns:

a list of inbound paths

Throws:

NotFoundException - locationId or anotherLocationId is not found

NullArgumentException - locationId or anotherLocationId is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

UnsupportedException - supportsRoutingType(routingType) is false

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getFastestRoute

Route getFastestRoute(Id locationId,
                    Id anotherLocationId,
                    Type routingType)
                      throws NotFoundException,
                             OperationFailedException,
                             PermissionDeniedException

Gets the fastest route between the two given locations.

Parameters:

locationId - the given location Id

anotherLocationId - the given location Id

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

UnsupportedException - supportsRoutingType(routingType) is false

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getRoutes

Route getRoutes(Id locationId,
              Id anotherLocationId)
                throws NotFoundException,
                       OperationFailedException,
                       PermissionDeniedException
