Method Detail

getActionDefinitions

public List getActionDefinitions()

getLoopParameter

public String getLoopParameter()

Description copied from interface: IActionSequence

If the ActionSequence contains a loop, returns the parameter that the execution should loop on.

Specified by:

getLoopParameter in interface IActionSequence

Returns:

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

getConditionalExecution

public IConditionalExecution getConditionalExecution()

Specified by:

getConditionalExecution in interface IActionSequence

Returns:

The conditional execution object that determines whether a set of actions will be executed.

setConditionalExecution

public void setConditionalExecution(IConditionalExecution value)

Description copied from interface: IActionSequence

Sets the ConditionalExecution object that determines whether a set of actions will be executed.

Specified by:

setConditionalExecution in interface IActionSequence

Parameters:

value - The ConditionalExecution object

hasLoop

public boolean hasLoop()

Description copied from interface: IActionSequence

Returns whether the ActionSequence has a loop in its definition.

Specified by:

hasLoop in interface IActionSequence

Returns:

true if looping is defined, otherwise false

getResultType

public String getResultType()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns the type of the overall result of executing the action sequence document that this SequenceDefinition came from. For example if the sequence results in the generation of a report the result type for the sequence should be RESULT_TYPE_REPORT. This property is used to select icons to show next to the sequence name when users navigate the available actions. Tif this returns RESULT_TYPE_NONE, empty string or null, the action sequence will not be visible to users as they navigate

Specified by:

getResultType in interface ISequenceDefinition

Returns:

the action sequence result type

getSequenceName

public String getSequenceName()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns the document name of the action sequence document that this SequenceDefinition came from.

Specified by:

getSequenceName in interface ISequenceDefinition

Returns:

the action sequence document name

getAuthor

public String getAuthor()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns the author of the SequenceDefinition, if defined, or null otherwise.

Specified by:

getAuthor in interface ISequenceDefinition

Returns:

this definition's author, or null if not defined.

getDescription

public String getDescription()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns the description of this SequenceDefinition, if defined, or null otherwise.

Specified by:

getDescription in interface ISequenceDefinition

Returns:

this definition's description, or null if not defined.

getHelp

public String getHelp()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns the URL to the Help page for this definition.

Specified by:

getHelp in interface ISequenceDefinition

Returns:

the definition's Help URL

getInputDefinitions

public Map getInputDefinitions()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns a Map of the input parameters that are defined to this SequenceDefinition. These inputs are part of the contract between this sequence definition and the platform subsystems, ie., the runtime context.

Specified by:

getInputDefinitions in interface ISequenceDefinition

Returns:

Map of input parameters. Parameters take the name-value form.

getInputDefinitionsForParameterProvider

public Map getInputDefinitionsForParameterProvider(String parameterProviderName)

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns a Map of the input parameters that are defined to this SequenceDefinition for a specific parameter provider. For example the input named "REGION" may come from a request parameter named "regn" Calling this method passing in "request" for the parameterproviderName will return a map that includes an entry with the key "regn" mapped to the "REGION" IActionParameter.

Specified by:

getInputDefinitionsForParameterProvider in interface ISequenceDefinition

Parameters:

parameterProviderName - The name of the parameter provider e.g. "request", "session", "global"...

Returns:

Map of input parameters. Parameters take the name-value form.

getOutputDefinitions

public Map getOutputDefinitions()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns a Map of the output parameters that are defined to this SequenceDefinition. These outputs are part of the contract between this sequence definition and the platform subsystems, ie., the runtime context.

Specified by:

getOutputDefinitions in interface ISequenceDefinition

Returns:

Map of output parameters. Parameters take the name-value form.

getResourceDefinitions

public Map getResourceDefinitions()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns the sequence's resource definitions as a Map. Resources are elements that exist outside of the action sequence document, such as images, icons, additional definition documents, etc.

Specified by:

getResourceDefinitions in interface ISequenceDefinition

Returns:

Map of resource parameters. Parameters take the name-value form.

getSolutionName

public String getSolutionName()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns the solution name, which is the name at the root level of the solution path.

Specified by:

Returns:

the name of the root level of this definition's solution

getSolutionPath

public String getSolutionPath()

Description copied from interface: ISequenceDefinition

Returns the path relative to the solution name that will lead to this definition

Specified by:

getSolutionPath in interface ISequenceDefinition
