Interface RaceProcessorSmartPollsSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface RaceProcessorSmartPollsSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic polls. a RaceProcessorQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this Polls to create a virtual collection of race processors. The race processor may be sequenced using the RaceProcessorSearchOrder from this session.

This Polls has a default query that matches any race processor and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a RaceProcessorQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a RaceProcessorQuery .

    • getPollsId

      Id getPollsId()
      Gets the Polls Id associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the Polls Id associated with this session

    • getPolls

      Gets the Polls associated with this session.
      Returns:
      the polls

      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • canManageSmartPolls

      boolean canManageSmartPolls()
      Tests if this user can manage smart polls. 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 polls management is not authorized, true otherwise
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.

    • getRaceProcessorSearchOrder

      RaceProcessorSearchOrder getRaceProcessorSearchOrder()
      Gets a race processor search order.
      Returns:
      the race processor search order
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • applyRaceProcessorQuery

      void applyRaceProcessorQuery(RaceProcessorQuery raceProcessorQuery) throws OperationFailedException, PermissionDeniedException
