Interface BrokerProcessorEnablerDistributorAssignmentSession

All Superinterfaces:

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

public interface BrokerProcessorEnablerDistributorAssignmentSession
extends OsidSession

This session provides methods to re-assign BrokerProcessorEnabler to Distributor mappings. A BrokerProcessorEnabler may appear in multiple Distributor objects and removing the last reference to a BrokerProcessorEnabler 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 BrokerProcessorEnabler to another Distributor is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id ).

Method Detail

canAssignBrokerProcessorEnablers

boolean canAssignBrokerProcessorEnablers()

Tests if this user can alter broker processor enabler/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.

canAssignBrokerProcessorEnablersToDistributor

boolean canAssignBrokerProcessorEnablersToDistributor(Id distributorId)

Tests if this user can alter broker processor enabler/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 broker processor enabler 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.

getAssignableDistributorIdsForBrokerProcessorEnabler

IdList getAssignableDistributorIdsForBrokerProcessorEnabler(Id distributorId,
                                                          Id brokerProcessorEnablerId)
                                                            throws OperationFailedException

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

Parameters:

distributorId - the Id of the Distributor

brokerProcessorEnablerId - the Id of the BrokerProcessorEnabler

Returns:

list of assignable distributor Ids

Throws:

NullArgumentException - distributorId or brokerProcessorEnablerId is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

assignBrokerProcessorEnablerToDistributor

void assignBrokerProcessorEnablerToDistributor(Id brokerProcessorEnablerId,
                                             Id distributorId)
                                               throws AlreadyExistsException,
                                                      NotFoundException,

                                                      PermissionDeniedException

Adds an existing BrokerProcessorEnabler to a Distributor.

Parameters:

brokerProcessorEnablerId - the Id of the BrokerProcessorEnabler

distributorId - the Id of the Distributor

Throws:

AlreadyExistsException - brokerProcessorEnablerId is already assigned to distributorId

NotFoundException - brokerProcessorEnablerId or distributorId not found

NullArgumentException - brokerProcessorEnablerId or distributorId is null

OperationFailedException - unable to complete request

PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure

Compliance:

mandatory - This method must be implemented.

unassignBrokerProcessorEnablerFromDistributor

void unassignBrokerProcessorEnablerFromDistributor(Id brokerProcessorEnablerId,
