Interface ProvisionableEnablerDistributorAssignmentSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface ProvisionableEnablerDistributorAssignmentSession extends OsidSession

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

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

  • Method Details

    • canAssignProvisionableEnablers

      boolean canAssignProvisionableEnablers()
      Tests if this user can alter provisionable enabler/distributor 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. T his 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.
    • canAssignProvisionableEnablerToDistributor
