Interfaceosid.offering.rules.CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerRuleLookupSession
Implementsosid.OsidSession
Description

This session provides methods to retrieve CanonicalUnitProcessorEnabler to CanonicalUnitProcessor mappings. A CanonicalUnitProcessor with multiple CanonicalUnitProcessorEnablers means any positive rule evaluation across the enablers result in an effective CanonicalUnitProcessor.

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
  • isolated catalogue view: All methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain canonical unit processor enablers defined explicitly in the current catalogue
  • federated catalogue view: All methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to all canonical unit processor enablers defined in this catalogue and any other canonical unit processor enablers implicitly available in this catalogue through catalogue inheritence.
MethodgetCatalogueId
Description

Gets the Catalogue Id associated with this session.

Returnosid.id.Idthe Catalogue Id associated with this session
CompliancemandatoryThis method must be implemented.
MethodgetCatalogue
Description

Gets the Catalogue associated with this session.

Returnosid.offering.Cataloguethe catalogue
ErrorsOPERATION_FAILEDunable to complete request
PERMISSION_DENIEDauthorization failure
CompliancemandatoryThis method must be implemented.
MethodcanLookupCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerRules
Description

Tests if this user can perform lookups of canonical unit processor enabler/canonical unit processor 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.

Returnboolean false if looking up mappings is not authorized, true otherwise
CompliancemandatoryThis method must be implemented.
MethoduseComparativeCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerRuleView
Description

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.

CompliancemandatoryThis method is must be implemented.
MethodusePlenaryCanonicalUnitProcessorEnablerRuleView
Description

A complete view of the CanonicalUnitProcessorEnabler and CanonicalUnitProcessor 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.

CompliancemandatoryThis method is must be implemented.
MethoduseFederatedCatalogueView
Description

Federates the view for methods in this session. A federated view will include canonical unit processor enablers in catalogues which are children of this catalogue in the catalogue hierarchy.

CompliancemandatoryThis method is must be implemented.
MethoduseIsolatedCatalogueView
Description

Isolates the view for methods in this session. An isolated view restricts lookups to this catalogue only.

CompliancemandatoryThis method is must be implemented.
