Interface SignalEnablerSmartMapSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface SignalEnablerSmartMapSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic maps. A SignalEnablerQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this Map to create a virtual collection of signal enablers. The signal enabler may be sequenced using the SignalEnablerSearchOrder from this session.

This Map has a default query that matches any signal enabler and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a SignalEnablerQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a SignalEnablerQuery .

    • getMapId

      Id getMapId()
      Gets the Map Id associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the Map Id associated with this session
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getMap

      Gets the Map associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the map
      Throws:
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • canManageSmartMaps

      boolean canManageSmartMaps()
      Tests if this user can manage smart maps. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known 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 operations to unauthorized users.
      Returns:
      false if smart map management is not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

      Gets a signal enabler query.
      Returns:
      the signal enabler query
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getSignalEnablerSearchOrder

      SignalEnablerSearchOrder getSignalEnablerSearchOrder()
      Gets a signal enabler search order.
      Returns:
      the signal enabler search order
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • applySignalEnablerQuery

      void applySignalEnablerQuery(SignalEnablerQuery signalEnablerQuery) throws OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
      Applies a signal enabler query to this map.
      Parameters:

      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure occurred
      UnsupportedException - signalEnablerQuery not of this service
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • inspectSignalEnablerQuery

      Gets a signal enabler query inspector for this map.
      Returns:
      the signal enabler query inspector
      Throws:
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure occurred
      Compliance:

      Applies a signal enabler search order to this map.
      Parameters:
      signalEnablerSearchOrder - the signal enabler search order
      Throws:
      NullArgumentException - signalEnablerSearchOrder is null
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
