OSID - osid.provisioning.rules.QueueProcessorEnablerAdminSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.provisioning.rules.QueueProcessorEnablerAdminSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Used By	`osid.provisioning.rules.ProvisioningRulesManager`
Used By	`osid.provisioning.rules.ProvisioningRulesProxyManager`
Description	This session creates, updates, and deletes `QueueProcessorEnablers` . The data for create and update is provided by the consumer via the form object. `OsidForms` are requested for each create or update and may not be reused. Create and update operations differ in their usage. To create a `QueueProcessorEnabler` , a `QueueProcessorEnablerForm` is requested using `getQueueProcessorEnablerFormForCreate()` specifying the desired record `Types` or none if no record `Types` are needed. The returned `QueueProcessorEnablerForm` will indicate that it is to be used with a create operation and can be used to examine metdata or validate data prior to creation. Once the `QueueProcessorEnablerForm` is submiited to a create operation, it cannot be reused with another create operation unless the first operation was unsuccessful. Each `QueueProcessorEnablerForm` corresponds to an attempted transaction. For updates, `QueueProcessorEnablerForms` are requested to the `QueueProcessorEnabler` `Id` that is to be updated using `getQueueProcessorEnablerFormForUpdate()` . Similarly, the `QueueProcessorEnablerForm` has metadata about the data that can be updated and it can perform validation before submitting the update. The `QueueProcessorEnablerForm` can only be used once for a successful update and cannot be reused. The delete operations delete `QueueProcessorEnablers` . To unmap a `QueueProcessorEnabler` from the current `Distributor` , the `QueueProcessorEnablerDistributorAssignmentSession` should be used. These delete operations attempt to remove the `QueueProcessorEnabler` itself thus removing it from all known `Distributor` catalogs. This session includes an `Id` aliasing mechanism to assign an external `Id` to an internally assigned `Id` .

Method	canCreateQueueProcessorEnablerWithRecordTypes
Description	Tests if this user can create a single `QueueProcessorEnabler` using the desired record types. While `ProvisioningRulesManager.getQueueProcessorEnablerRecordTypes()` can be used to examine which records are supported, this method tests which record(s) are required for creating a specific `QueueProcessorEnabler` . Providing an empty array tests if a `QueueProcessorEnabler can be cr` eated with no records.

Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`queueProcessorEnablerRecordTypes` is `null`
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getQueueProcessorEnablerFormForCreate

Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`queueProcessorEnablerRecordTypes` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure

	NULL_ARGUMENT		`queueProcessorEnablerForm` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
	UNSUPPORTED		`queueProcessorEnablerForm` did not originate from `getQueueProcessorEnablerFormForCreate()`
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	canUpdateQueueProcessorEnablers
Description	Tests if this user can update `QueueProcessorEnablers` . A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known updating a `QueueProcessorEnabler` will result in a `PERMISSION_DENIED. T` his is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer update operations to an unauthorized user.
Return	`boolean`		`false` if `QueueProcessorEnabler` modification is not authorized, `true` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
