package org.osid.topology.path

The Open Service Interface Definitions for the org.osid.topology.path service.

The Topology Path OSID provides defines a service to manage paths through a topology of nodes.

Paths

Paths are OsidRelationships with a starting an ending Node . A Path is created by adding and removing Edges .

Graph Cataloging

Paths can be organized into hierarchical OsidCatalogs of Graphs .

  • Interfaces
    Class
    Description
    Path
    A Path represents a means between two nodes.
    PathAdminSession
    This session creates, updates, and deletes Paths .
    PathForm
    This is the form for creating and updating Paths .Like all OsidForm objects, various data elements may be set here for use in the create and update methods in the PathAdminSession .
    PathGraphAssignmentSession
    This session provides methods to re-assign Paths to Graph objects.
    PathGraphSession
    This session provides methods to retrieve Path to Graph mappings.
    PathList
    Like all OsidLists , PathList provides a means for accessing Path elements sequentially either one at a time or many at a time.
    PathLookupSession
    This session provides methods for retrieving Path objects.
    PathNotificationSession
    This session defines methods to receive notifications on adds/changes to Path objects in this Graph .
    PathQuery
    This is the query for searching paths.
    PathQueryInspector
    This is the query inspector for examining path queries.
    PathQuerySession
    This session provides methods for searching among Path objects.
    PathReceiver
    The path receiver is the consumer supplied interface for receiving notifications pertaining to new, updated or deleted Path objects.
    PathSearch
    The search interface for governing path searches.
    PathSearchOrder
    An interface for specifying the ordering of search results.
    PathSearchResults
    This interface provides a means to capture results of a search.
    PathSearchSession
    This session provides methods for searching among Path objects.
    PathSmartGraphSession
    This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs.
    TopologyPathManager
    The topology manager provides access to topology path sessions and provides interoperability tests for various aspects of this service.
    TopologyPathProfile
    The topology profile describes the interoperability among topology path services.
    TopologyPathProxyManager
    The topology manager provides access to topology path sessions and provides interoperability tests for various aspects of this service.
