Interface LogEntryLookupSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface LogEntryLookupSession extends OsidSession

This session provides methods for retrieving premade LogEntries . The LogEntry represents a set of efforts.

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 front office view: All log entry methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to log entries defined explicitly in the current front office. Using an isolated view is useful for managing LogEntries with the LogEntryAdminSession .
  • federated front office view: All log entry methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to all log entries defined in this front office and any other log entries implicitly available in this front office through front office inheritence.

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 useFederatedFrontOfficeView() and useIsolatedFrontOfficeView() behave as a radio group and one should be selected before invoking the methods in this session.

    • canLookupLogEntries

      boolean canLookupLogEntries()
      Tests if this user can perform LogEntry 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 .

      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • useComparativeLogEntryView

      void useComparativeLogEntryView()
      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.
    • useFederatedFrontOfficeView

      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • useIsolatedFrontOfficeView

      void useIsolatedFrontOfficeView()
