Interface RouteMapSession

All Superinterfaces:

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

public interface RouteMapSession
extends OsidSession

This session provides methods to retrieve Route to Map mappings. A Route may appear in multiple Map objects. Each map may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to look at it.

This lookup session defines several views:

• comparative view: elements may be silently omitted or re-ordered
• plenary view: provides a complete result set or is an error condition

RouteList	getRoutesByMap(Id mapId) Gets the list of Routes associated with a Map.
RouteList	getRoutesByMaps(IdList mapIds) Gets the list of Route corresponding to a list of Maps.
void	useComparativeRouteMapView() The returns from the lookup methods may omit or translate elements based on this session, such as authorization, and not result in an error.
void	usePlenaryRouteMapView() A complete view of the Route and Map returns is desired.

Method Detail

canLookupRouteMapLocations

boolean canLookupRouteMapLocations()

Tests if this user can perform lookups of route/map mappings. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known lookup 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 looking up mappings is not authorized, true otherwise

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

useComparativeRouteMapView

void useComparativeRouteMapView()

The returns from the lookup methods may omit or translate elements based on this session, such as authorization, and not result in an error. This view is used when greater interoperability is desired at the expense of precision.

Compliance:

mandatory - This method is must be implemented.

usePlenaryRouteMapView

void usePlenaryRouteMapView()

A complete view of the Route and Map returns is desired. Methods will return what is requested or result in an error. This view is used when greater precision is desired at the expense of interoperability.

Compliance:

mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
