Interface LogEntryLogSession

All Superinterfaces:

AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface LogEntryLogSession
extends OsidSession

This session provides methods to retrieve LogEntry to Log mappings. An entry may appear in multiple Logs . Each Log may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to look at it.

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

Method Summary

Modifier and Type	Method	Description
boolean	canLookupLogEntryLogMappings()	Tests if this user can perform lookups of logEntry/log mappings.

IdList	getLogIdsByLogEntry(Id logEntryId)	Gets the list of Log Ids mapped to a LogEntry .
LogList	getLogsByLogEntry(Id logEntryId)	Gets the list of Log objects mapped to a LogEntry .
void	useComparativeLogView()	The returns from the lookup methods may omit or translate elements based on this session, such as authorization, and not result in an error.
void	usePlenaryLogView()	A complete view of the LogEntry and Log returns is desired.

Method Details

useComparativeLogView

void useComparativeLogView()

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.

usePlenaryLogView

void usePlenaryLogView()

A complete view of the LogEntry and Log 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.

canLookupLogEntryLogMappings

boolean canLookupLogEntryLogMappings()

Tests if this user can perform lookups of logEntry/log 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.
