Interface CourseEntryCourseCatalogAssignmentSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession
public interface CourseEntryCourseCatalogAssignmentSession extends OsidSession

This session provides methods to re-assign CourseEntries to CourseCatalogs . A CourseEntry may appear in multiple CourseCatalogs and removing the last reference to a CourseEntry is the equivalent of deleting it. Each CourseCatalog may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it.

Adding a reference of a CourseEntry to another CourseCatalog is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id ).

  • Method Details

    • canAssignCourseEntries

      boolean canAssignCourseEntries()
      Tests if this user can alter course entry/course catalog mappings. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known mapping 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 assignment operations to unauthorized users.
      Returns:
      false if mapping is not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

    • canAssignCourseEntryToCourseCatalog

      boolean canAssignCourseEntryToCourseCatalog(Id courseCatalogId)

      Parameters:
      courseCatalogId - the Id of the CourseCatalog
      Returns:
      false if mapping is not authorized, true otherwise
      Throws:
      NullArgumentException - courseCatalogId is null
