Interface ScheduleCalendarSession

All Superinterfaces:

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

public interface ScheduleCalendarSession
extends OsidSession

This session provides methods to retrieve Schedule to Calendar mappings. A Schedule may appear in multiple Calendars. Each Calendar may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to look at it.

This lookup session defines two views:

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

Method Detail

canLookupScheduleCalendarMappings

boolean canLookupScheduleCalendarMappings()

Tests if this user can perform lookups of schedule/calendar mappings. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization.

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.

useComparativeCalendarView

void useComparativeCalendarView()

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.

usePlenaryCalendarView

void usePlenaryCalendarView()

A complete view of the Schedule and Calendar 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.
