Interface IActionSequence

All Superinterfaces:
ISequenceDefinition
All Known Implementing Classes:
ActionSequence

public interface IActionSequence
extends ISequenceDefinition

An ActionSequence is the functional object that wraps a SequenceDefinition for processing by the RuntimeContext. When a request results in a RuntimeContext execution, it is the ActionSequence that the context is operazting on.

Method Detail

getActionDefinitionsAndSequences

List getActionDefinitionsAndSequences()
Returns the list of ActionDefinition objects retrieved from the SequenceDefinition.

Returns:
list of ActionDefinitions

getLoopParameter

String getLoopParameter()
If the ActionSequence contains a loop, returns the parameter that the execution should loop on.

Returns:
the parameter to loop on, if looping is defined, otherwise null

hasLoop

boolean hasLoop()
Returns whether the ActionSequence has a loop in its definition.

Returns:
true if looping is defined, otherwise false

getConditionalExecution

IConditionalExecution getConditionalExecution()
Returns:
The conditional execution object that determines whether a set of actions will be executed.

setConditionalExecution

void setConditionalExecution(IConditionalExecution value)
Sets the ConditionalExecution object that determines whether a set of actions will be executed.

Parameters:
value - The ConditionalExecution object
