OSID - osid.configuration.rules.ParameterProcessorNotificationSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.configuration.rules.ParameterProcessorNotificationSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Description	This session defines methods to receive notifications on adds/changes to `ParameterProcessor` objects in this `Configuration.` This also includes existing `ParameterProcessors` that may appear or disappear due to changes in the `Configuration` hierarchy, This session is intended for consumers needing to synchronize their state with this service without the use of polling. Notifications are cancelled when this session is closed. The two views defined in this session correspond to the views in the `ParameterProcessorLookupSession.`
Method	getConfigurationId
Description	Gets the `Configuration` `Id` associated with this session.
Return	`osid.id.Id`		the `Configuration Id` associated with this session
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getConfiguration
Description	Gets the `Configuration` associated with this session.
Return	`osid.configuration.Configuration`		the configuration
Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Errors	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	canRegisterForParameterProcessorNotifications
Description	Tests if this user can register for `ParameterProcessor` notifications. 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 opt not to offer notification operations.
Return	`boolean`		`false` if notification methods are not authorized, `true` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	useFederatedConfigurationView
Description	Federates the view for methods in this session. A federated view will include in configurations which are children of this configuration in the configuration hierarchy.
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method is must be implemented.
Method	useIsolatedConfigurationView
Description	Isolates the view for methods in this session. An isolated view restricts notifications to this configuration only.
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method is must be implemented.
Method	reliableParameterProcessorNotifications
Description	Reliable notifications are desired. In reliable mode, notifications are to be acknowledged using `acknowledgeParameterProcessorNotification()` .
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method is must be implemented.
Method	unreliableParameterProcessorNotifications
Description	Unreliable notifications are desired. In unreliable mode, notifications do not need to be acknowledged.
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method is must be implemented.
Method	acknowledgeParameterProcessorNotification
Description	Acknowledge a parameter processor notification.
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`notificationId`	the `Id` of the notification
Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Errors	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	registerForNewParameterProcessors
Description	Register for notifications of new parameter processors. `ParameterProcessorReceiver.newParameterProcessors()` is invoked when a new `ParameterProcessor` appears in this configuration.
Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Errors	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	registerForChangedParameterProcessors
Description	Registers for notification of updated parameter processors. `ParameterProcessorReceiver.changedParameterProcessors()` is invoked when a parameter processor in this configuration is changed.
Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Errors	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	registerForChangedParameterProcessor
Description	Registers for notification of an updated parameter processor. `ProvisionableReceiver.changedParameterProcessors()` is invoked when the specified parameter processor in this configuration is changed.
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`parameterProcessorId`	the `Id` of the `ParameterProcessor` to monitor
Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`parameterProcessorId` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	registerForDeletedParameterProcessors
Description	Registers for notification of deleted parameter processors. `ParameterProcessorReceiver.deletedParameterProcessors()` is invoked when a parameter processor is deleted or removed from this configuration.
Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Errors	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	registerForDeletedParameterProcessor
Description	Registers for notification of a deleted parameter processor. `ParameterProcessorReceiver.deletedParameterProcessors()` is invoked when the specified parameter processor is deleted or removed from this configuration.
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`parameterProcessorId`	the `Id` of the `ParameterProcessor` to monitor
Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`parameterProcessorId` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
