Interface OffsetEventEnablerRuleLookupSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface OffsetEventEnablerRuleLookupSession extends OsidSession

This session provides methods to retrieve OffsetEventEnabler to OffsetEvent mappings. An Calendar with multiple OffsetEventEnablers means any positive rule evaluation across the enablers result in an effective OffsetEvent .

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 calendar view: All methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain offset event enablers defined explicitly in the current calendar
  • federated calendar view: All methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to all offset event enablers defined in this calendar and any other offset event enablers implicitly available in this calendar through calendar inheritence.
  • Method Details

    • 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
      Throws:
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • canLookupOffsetEventEnablerRules

      boolean canLookupOffsetEventEnablerRules()
      Tests if this user can perform lookups of offset event enabler/offset event 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.
      Returns:
      false if looking up mappings is not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • useComparativeOffsetEventEnablerRuleView

      void useComparativeOffsetEventEnablerRuleView()
      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.
    • usePlenaryOffsetEventEnablerRuleView

      void usePlenaryOffsetEventEnablerRuleView()
      A complete view of the OffsetEventEnabler and OffsetEvent 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 offset event enablers 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.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • getOffsetEventEnablerIdsForOffsetEvent

      IdList getOffsetEventEnablerIdsForOffsetEvent(Id offsetEventId) throws NotFoundException, OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
      Gets the OffsetEventEnabler Id associated with an OffsetEvent .
      Parameters:
      offsetEventId - Id of the OffsetEvent
      Returns:
      the offset event enabler Ids
      Throws:
      NotFoundException - offsetEventId is not found
      NullArgumentException - offsetEventId is null
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getOffsetEventEnablersForOffsetEvent

      OffsetEventEnablerList getOffsetEventEnablersForOffsetEvent(Id offsetEventId) throws NotFoundException, OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
      Gets the OffsetEventEnablers associated with an OffsetEvent .
      Parameters:
      offsetEventId - Id of the OffsetEvent
      Returns:
      the offset event enablers
      Throws:
      NotFoundException - offsetEventId is not found
      NullArgumentException - offsetEventId is null
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getOffsetEventIdsForOffsetEventEnabler

      IdList getOffsetEventIdsForOffsetEventEnabler(Id offsetEventEnablerId) throws NotFoundException, OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
      Gets the OffsetEvent Ids mapped to an OffsetEventEnabler .
      Parameters:
      offsetEventEnablerId - Id of an OffsetEventEnabler
      Returns:
      list of offset event Ids
      Throws:
      NotFoundException - offsetEventEnablerId is not found
      NullArgumentException - offsetEventEnablerId is null
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getOffsetEventsForOffsetEventEnabler

      OffsetEventList getOffsetEventsForOffsetEventEnabler(Id offsetEventEnablerId) throws NotFoundException, OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
      Gets the OffsetEvents mapped to an OffsetEventEnabler .
      Parameters:
