Interface ObjectiveBankAdminSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession
All Known Subinterfaces:
ObjectiveBankBatchAdminSession
public interface ObjectiveBankAdminSession extends OsidSession

This session creates, updates, and deletes ObjectiveBanks . 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 an ObjectiveBank , an ObjectiveBankForm is requested using getObjectiveBankFormForCreate() specifying the desired record Types or none if no record Types are needed. The returned ObjectiveBankForm 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 ObjectiveBankForm is submiited to a create operation, it cannot be reused with another create operation unless the first operation was unsuccessful. Each ObjectiveBankForm corresponds to an attempted transaction.

For updates, ObjectiveBankForms are requested to the ObjectiveBank Id that is to be updated using getObjectiveBankFormForUpdate() . Similarly, the ObjectiveBankForm has metadata about the data that can be updated and it can perform validation before submitting the update. The ObjectiveBankForm can only be used once for a successful update and cannot be reused.

The delete operations delete ObjectiveBanks . It is safer to remove all mappings to the ObjectiveBank catalogs before deletion.

This session includes an Id aliasing mechanism to assign an external Id to an internally assigned Id.

  • Method Details

    • canCreateObjectiveBanks

      boolean canCreateObjectiveBanks()
      Tests if this user can create ObjectiveBanks . A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known creating an ObjectiveBank will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED . This is intended as a hint to an application that may not wish to offer create operations to unauthorized users.
      Returns:
      false if ObjectiveBank creation is not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

    • canCreateObjectiveBankWithRecordTypes

      boolean canCreateObjectiveBankWithRecordTypes(Type[] objectiveBankRecordTypes)
      Tests if this user can create a single ObjectiveBank using the desired record types. While LearningManager.getObjectiveBankRecordTypes() can be used to examine which records are supported, this method tests which record(s) are required for creating a specific ObjectiveBank . Providing an empty array tests if an ObjectiveBank can be created with no records.
      Parameters:
      objectiveBankRecordTypes - array of objective bank record types
      Returns:
      true if ObjectiveBank creation using the specified Types is supported, false otherwise
      Throws:
      NullArgumentException - objectiveBankRecordTypes is null
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

      the objective bank form
      Throws:
      NullArgumentException - objectiveBankRecordTypes is null

      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

    • canUpdateObjectiveBanks

      boolean canUpdateObjectiveBanks()
      Tests if this user can update ObjectiveBanks . A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known updating an ObjectiveBank will result in a PERMISSION_DENIED . This is intended as a hint to an application that may not wish to offer update operations to unauthorized users.
      Returns:
      false if ObjectiveBank modification is not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

    • getObjectiveBankFormForUpdate

      ObjectiveBankForm getObjectiveBankFormForUpdate(Id objectiveBankId) throws NotFoundException, OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
      Gets the objective bank form for updating an existing objective bank. A new objective bank form should be requested for each update transaction.
      Parameters:
      objectiveBankId - the Id of the ObjectiveBank
