OSID - osid.mapping.path.Intersection Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.mapping.path.Intersection
Implements	`osid.OsidObject`
Implements	`osid.Aggregateable`
Used By	`osid.mapping.path.IntersectionAdminSession`
	`osid.mapping.path.IntersectionList`
	`osid.mapping.path.IntersectionLookupSession`
Description	An intersection represents a crossing of paths where one can travel from one path to another.
Method	getCoordinate
Description	Gets a single corrdinate to represent the intersection.
Return	`osid.mapping.Coordinate`		the coordinate
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getPathIds
Description	Gets the intersecting path `Ids`.
Return	`osid.id.IdList`		the path `Ids`
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getPaths
Description	Gets the intersecting paths.
Return	`osid.mapping.path.PathList`		the paths
Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	isRotary
Description	Tests if this intersection is a rotary.
Return	`boolean`		`true` if this intersection is a rotary, `false` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	isFork
Description	Tests if this intersection is a fork or exit.
Return	`boolean`		`true` if this intersection is a fork, `false` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getIntersectionRecord
Description	Gets the intersection record corresponding to the given `Intersection` record `Type`. This method is used to retrieve an object implementing the requested record. The `intersectionRecordType` may be the `Type` returned in `getRecordTypes()` or any of its parents in a `Type` hierarchy where `hasRecordType(intersectionRecordType)` is `true`.
Parameters	`osid.type.Type`	`intersectionRecordType`	the type of intersection record to retrieve
Return	`osid.mapping.path.records.IntersectionRecord`		the intersection record
Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`intersectionRecordType` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	UNSUPPORTED		`hasRecordType(intersectionRecordType)` is `false`
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
