Interface ProgramEntryLookupSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface ProgramEntryLookupSession extends OsidSession

This session defines methods for retrieving entries.

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 course catalog view: All program entry methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to program entries defined explicitly in the current course catalog. Using an isolated view is useful for managing ProgramEntries with the ProgramEntry AdminSession .
  • federated course catalog view: All program entry lookup methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to all program entries defined in this course catalog and any other program entries implicitly available in this course catalog through course catalog inheritence.
  • effective program entry view: All program entry lookup methods return program entry where the current date falls in between the effective dates inclusive.
  • any program entry view: Program entries of any effective date are returned from methods.

The methods useFederatedCourseCatalogView() and useIsolatedCourseCatalogView() behave as a radio group and one should be selected before invoking any lookup methods.

Program entries may have an additional records indicated by their respective record types. The record may not be accessed through a cast of the ProgramEntry .

      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • canLookupProgramEntries

      boolean canLookupProgramEntries()
      Tests if this user can perform ProgramEntry 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 .

      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • useFederatedCourseCatalogView

      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • useIsolatedCourseCatalogView

      void useIsolatedCourseCatalogView()
