OSID - osid.mapping.path.rules.SignalEnablerMapAssignmentSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.mapping.path.rules.SignalEnablerMapAssignmentSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Used By	`osid.mapping.path.rules.MappingPathRulesManager`
Used By	`osid.mapping.path.rules.MappingPathRulesProxyManager`
Description	This session provides methods to re-assign `SignalEnabler` to `Map` mappings. A `SignalEnabler` may appear in multiple `Map` objects and removing the last reference to a `SignalEnabler` is the equivalent of deleting it. Each `Map` may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it. Adding a reference of a `SignalEnabler` to another `Map` is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its `Id` ).
Method	canAssignSignalEnablers
Description	Tests if this user can alter signal enabler/map 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` . This is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer lookup operations to unauthorized users.
Return	`boolean`		`false` if mapping is not authorized, `true` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	canAssignSignalEnablersToMap
Description	Tests if this user can alter signal enabler/map 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` . This is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer lookup operations to unauthorized users.
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`mapId`	the `Id` of the `Map`
Return	`boolean`		`false` if mapping is not authorized, `true` otherwise
Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`mapId` is `null`
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getAssignableMapIds
Description	Gets a list of maps including and under the given map node in which any signal enabler can be assigned.
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`mapId`	the `Id` of the `Map`
Return	`osid.id.IdList`		list of assignable map `Ids`
Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`mapId` is `null`
Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	getAssignableMapIdsForSignalEnabler
Description	Gets a list of maps including and under the given map node in which a specific signal enabler can be assigned.
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`mapId`	the `Id` of the `Map`
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`signalEnablerId`	the `Id` of the `SignalEnabler`
Return	`osid.id.IdList`		list of assignable map `Ids`
Errors	NULL_ARGUMENT		`mapId` or `signalEnablerId` is `null`
Errors	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	assignSignalEnablerToMap
Description	Adds an existing `SignalEnabler` to an `Map` .
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`signalEnablerId`	the `Id` of the `SignalEnabler`
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`mapId`	the `Id` of the `Map`
Errors	ALREADY_EXISTS		`signalEnablerId` is already assigned to `mapId`
	NOT_FOUND		`signalEnablerId` or `mapId` not found
	NULL_ARGUMENT		`signalEnablerId` or `mapId` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	unassignSignalEnablerFromMap
Description	Removes a `SignalEnabler` from an `Map` .
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`signalEnablerId`	the `Id` of the `SignalEnabler`
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`mapId`	the `Id` of the `Map`
Errors	NOT_FOUND		`signalEnablerId` or `mapId` not found or `signalEnablerId` not assigned to `mapId`
	NULL_ARGUMENT		`signalEnablerId` or `mapId` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	reassignSignalEnablerToMap
Description	Moves a `SignalEnabler` from one `Map` to another. Mappings to other `Maps` are unaffected.
Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`signalEnablerId`	the `Id` of the `SignalEnabler`
	`osid.id.Id`	`fromMapId`	the `Id` of the current `Map`
	`osid.id.Id`	`toMapId`	the `Id` of the destination `Map`
Errors	ALREADY_EXISTS		`signalEnablerId` already assigned to `toMapId`
	NOT_FOUND		`signalEnablerId, fromMapId` , or `toMapId` not found or `signalEnablerId` not mapped to `fromMapId`
	NULL_ARGUMENT		`signalEnablerId, fromMapId` , or `toMapId` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
	PERMISSION_DENIED		authorization failure
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
