Interface JobConstrainerLookupSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface JobConstrainerLookupSession extends OsidSession

This session provides methods for retrieving JobConstrainers .

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors when retrieving multiple objects.

  • comparative view: elements may be silently omitted or re-ordered
  • plenary view: provides a complete set or is an error condition
  • isolated foundry view: All job constrainer methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to job constrainer defined explicitly in the current foundry. Using an isolated view is useful for managing JobConstrainers with the JobConstrainerAdminSession .
  • federated foundry view: All job constrainer methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to all job constrainer defined in this foundry and any other job constrainer implicitly available in this foundry through foundry inheritence.
  • active job constrainer view: All job constrainer lookup methods return active job constrainers.
  • any status authorization enabler view: Jon constrainers of any active or inactive status are returned from methods.

Generally, the comparative view should be used for most applications as it permits operation even if there is data that cannot be accessed. The methods useFederatedFoundryView() and useIsolatedFoundryView() behave as a radio group and one should be selected before invoking the methods in this session.

    • getFoundryId

      Id getFoundryId()
      Gets the Foundry Id associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the Foundry Id associated with this session
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getFoundry

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

      boolean canLookupJobConstrainers()
      Tests if this user can perform JobConstrainers 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 . This is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer lookup operations to unauthorized users.
      Returns:
      false if lookup methods are not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • useComparativeJobConstrainerView

      void useComparativeJobConstrainerView()
      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.
    • usePlenaryJobConstrainerView

      void usePlenaryJobConstrainerView()
      A complete view of the JobConstrainer 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.
    • useFederatedFoundryView

      void useFederatedFoundryView()
      Federates the view for methods in this session. A federated view will include job constrainer in foundries which are children of this foundry in the foundry hierarchy.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • useIsolatedFoundryView

      void useIsolatedFoundryView()
      Isolates the view for methods in this session. An isolated view restricts lookups to this foundry only.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • useActiveJobConstrainerView

      void useActiveJobConstrainerView()
      Only active job constrainers are returned by methods in this session.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • useAnyStatusJobConstrainerView

      void useAnyStatusJobConstrainerView()
      All active and inactive job constrainers are returned by methods in this session.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • getJobConstrainer

      Gets the JobConstrainer specified by its Id . In plenary mode, the exact Id is found or a NOT_FOUND results. Otherwise, the returned JobConstrainer may have a different Id than requested, such as the case where a duplicate Id was assigned to a JobConstrainer and retained for compatibility. In active mode, job constrainers are returned that are currently active. In any status mode, active and inactive job constrainers are returned.
      Parameters:
      jobConstrainerId - Id of the JobConstrainer
      Returns:
      the job constrainer
      Throws:
      NotFoundException - jobConstrainerId not found
      NullArgumentException - jobConstrainerId is null
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
      PermissionDeniedException - authorization failure
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • getJobConstrainersByIds

      Gets a JobConstrainerList corresponding to the given IdList .In plenary mode, the returned list contains all of the job constrainer specified in the Id list, in the order of the list, including duplicates, or an error results if an Id in the supplied list is not found or inaccessible. Otherwise, inaccessible JobConstrainers may be omitted from the list and may present the elements in any order including returning a unique set. In active mode, job constrainers are returned that are currently active. In any status mode, active and inactive job constrainers are returned.
