Interface QueueProcessorDistributorAssignmentSession

All Superinterfaces:

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

public interface QueueProcessorDistributorAssignmentSession
extends OsidSession

This session provides methods to re-assign QueueProcessor to Distributor mappings. a QueueProcessor may appear in multiple Distributor objects and removing the last reference to a QueueProcessor is the equivalent of deleting it. Each Distributor may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it.

Adding a reference of a QueueProcessor to another Distributor is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id ).

Method Detail

canAssignQueueProcessors

boolean canAssignQueueProcessors()

Tests if this user can alter queue processor/distributor mappings. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known mapping methods in this session will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED. This is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer lookup operations to unauthorized users.

Returns:

false if mapping is not authorized, true otherwise

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

canAssignQueueProcessorsToDistributor

boolean canAssignQueueProcessorsToDistributor(Id distributorId)

Tests if this user can alter queue processor/distributor mappings. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known mapping methods in this session will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED. This is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer lookup operations to unauthorized users.

Parameters:

distributorId - the Id of the Distributor

Returns:

false if mapping is not authorized, true otherwise

Throws:

NullArgumentException - distributorId is null

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getAssignableDistributorIds

IdList getAssignableDistributorIds(Id distributorId)
                                   throws OperationFailedException

Gets a list of distributors including and under the given distributor node in which any queue processor can be assigned.

Parameters:

distributorId - the Id of the Distributor

Returns:

list of assignable distributor Ids

Throws:

NullArgumentException - distributorId is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

getAssignableDistributorIdsForQueueProcessor

IdList getAssignableDistributorIdsForQueueProcessor(Id distributorId,
                                                  Id queueProcessorId)
                                                    throws OperationFailedException

Gets a list of distributors including and under the given distributor node in which a specific queue processor can be assigned.

Parameters:

distributorId - the Id of the Distributor

queueProcessorId - the Id of the QueueProcessor

Returns:

list of assignable distributor Ids

Throws:

NullArgumentException - distributorId or queueProcessorId is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

assignQueueProcessorToDistributor

void assignQueueProcessorToDistributor(Id queueProcessorId,
                                     Id distributorId)
                                       throws AlreadyExistsException,
                                              NotFoundException,
                                              OperationFailedException,
                                              PermissionDeniedException

Adds an existing QueueProcessor to a Distributor.

Parameters:

queueProcessorId - the Id of the QueueProcessor

distributorId - the Id of the Distributor

Throws:

AlreadyExistsException - queueProcessorId is already assigned to distributorId

NotFoundException - queueProcessorId or distributorId not found

NullArgumentException - queueProcessorId or distributorId is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

unassignQueueProcessorFromDistributor

void unassignQueueProcessorFromDistributor(Id queueProcessorId,
                                         Id distributorId)
                                           throws NotFoundException,
                                                  OperationFailedException,
                                                  PermissionDeniedException

Removes a QueueProcessor from a Distributor.

Parameters:

queueProcessorId - the Id of the QueueProcessor

distributorId - the Id of the Distributor

Throws:

NotFoundException - queueProcessorId or distributorId not or queueProcessorId not assigned to distributorId

NullArgumentException - queueProcessorId or distributorId is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.
