Interface CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuerySession

All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.AutoCloseable, java.io.Closeable, OsidSession

All Known Subinterfaces:

CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerSearchSession

public interface CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuerySession
extends OsidSession

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

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors for searching.

• federated catalogue view: searches include canonical unit processor enablers in catalogues of which this catalogue is an ancestor in the catalogue hierarchy
• isolated catalogue view: searches are restricted to canonical unit processor enablers in this catalogue

CanonicalUnit processor enablers may have a query record indicated by their respective record types. The query record is accessed via the CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery.

Method Summary

Methods

Modifier and Type	Method and Description

CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerList	getCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablersByQuery(CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery canonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery) Gets a list of CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablers matching the given search.
Catalogue	getCatalogue() Gets the Catalogue associated with this session.
Id	getCatalogueId() Gets the Catalogue Id associated with this session.
void	useFederatedCatalogueView() Federates the view for methods in this session.
void	useIsolatedCatalogueView() Isolates the view for methods in this session.

Method Detail

getCatalogueId

Id getCatalogueId()

Gets the Catalogue Id associated with this session.

Returns:

the Catalogue Id associated with this session

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getCatalogue

Catalogue getCatalogue()
                       throws OperationFailedException,
                              PermissionDeniedException

Gets the Catalogue associated with this session.

Returns:

the catalogue

Throws:

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

canSearchCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablers

boolean canSearchCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablers()

Tests if this user can perform CanonicalUnitProcessorEnabler lookups. 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 search methods are not authorized, true otherwise

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

useFederatedCatalogueView

void useFederatedCatalogueView()

Federates the view for methods in this session. A federated view will include canonical unit processor enablers in catalogues which are children of this broker in the catalogue hierarchy.

Compliance:

mandatory - This method is must be implemented.

useIsolatedCatalogueView

void useIsolatedCatalogueView()

Isolates the view for methods in this session. An isolated view restricts lookups to this catalogue only.

Compliance:

mandatory - This method is must be implemented.

getCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery

CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery getCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery()

Gets a canonical unit processor enabler query.

Returns:

the canonical unit processor enabler query

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablersByQuery

CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerList getCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablersByQuery(CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery canonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery)
                                                                           throws OperationFailedException,
                                                                                  PermissionDeniedException

Gets a list of CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablers matching the given search.

Parameters:

canonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery - the canonical unit processor enabler query

Returns:

the returned CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerList

Throws:

NullArgumentException - canonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

UnsupportedException - canonicalUnitProcessorEnablerQuery is not of this service

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.
