Interface JobQuerySession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession
All Known Subinterfaces:
JobSearchSession

public interface JobQuerySession extends OsidSession

This session provides methods for searching among Job objects. The search query is constructed using the JobQuery.

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors for searching.

  • federated foundry view: searches include jobs in foundries of which this foundry is an ancestor in the foundry hierarchy
  • isolated foundry view: searches are restricted to jobs in this foundry

Jobs may have a query record indicated by their respective record types. The query record is accessed via the JobQuery.

      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • useFederatedFoundryView

      void useFederatedFoundryView()
      Federates the view for methods in this session. A federated view will include jobs 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 searches to this foundry only.
      Compliance:
      mandatory - This method is must be implemented.
    • getJobQuery

      JobQuery getJobQuery()

      mandatory - This method must be implemented.
    • getJobsByQuery

      Gets a list of Jobs matching the given job query.
      Parameters:
      jobQuery - the job query
      Returns:
      the returned JobList
      Throws:
      NullArgumentException - jobQuery is null
      OperationFailedException - unable to complete request
