Interface SupersedingEventLookupSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface SupersedingEventLookupSession extends OsidSession

This session provides methods for retrieving SupersedingEvents .

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors when retrieving multiple objects.

  • comparative view: elements may be silently omitted or re-ordered
  • plenary view: provides a complete set or is an error condition
  • isolated calendar view: All superseding event methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to superseding events defined explicitly in the current calendar. Using an isolated view is useful for managing events with the SupersedingEventAdminSession .
  • federated calendar view: All superseding event methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to all superseding events defined in this calendar and any other calendars implicitly available in this calendar through calendar inheritence.
  • active superseding event view: All superseding event lookup methods return active superseding events.
  • any status superseding event view: Superseding events of any active or inactive status are returned from methods.

    • getCalendarId

      Id getCalendarId()
      Gets the Calendar Id associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the Calendar Id associated with this session
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getCalendar

      Gets the Calendar associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the Calendar associated with this session
      Throws:
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • canLookupSupersedingEvents

      boolean canLookupSupersedingEvents()
      Tests if this user can perform SupersedingEvent lookups. 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 lookup operations to unauthorized users.
      Returns:
      false if lookup methods are not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • useComparativeSupersedingEventView

      void useComparativeSupersedingEventView()
      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.
    • usePlenarySupersedingEventView

      void usePlenarySupersedingEventView()
      A complete view of the SupersedingEvent 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.
    • useFederatedCalendarView

      void useFederatedCalendarView()
      Federates the view for methods in this session. A federated view will include supserseding events in calendars which are children of this calendar in the calendar hierarchy.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • useIsolatedCalendarView

      void useIsolatedCalendarView()
      Isolates the view for methods in this session. An isolated view restricts lookups to this calendar only.

      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • useActiveSupersedingEventView

      void useActiveSupersedingEventView()
      Only active superseding events are returned by methods in this session.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.

      void useAnyStatusSupersedingEventView()
      All active and inactive superseding events are returned by methods in this session.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • getSupersedingEvent

      Gets the Superseding specified by its Id . In plenary mode, the exact Id is found or a NOT_FOUND results. Otherwise, the returned SupersedingEvent may have a different Id than requested, such as the case where a duplicate Id was assigned to a Superseding and retained for compatibility. In active mode, supersdeing events are returned that are currently active. In any status mode, active and inactive superseding events are returned.
      Parameters:
      supersedingEventId - Id of the SupersedingEvent
      Returns:
      the superseding event
