Description

This session provides methods to retrieve LogEntry to Log mappings. An entry may appear in multiple Logs. Each Log may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to look at it.

This lookup session defines several views:

  • comparative view: elements may be silently omitted or re-ordered
  • plenary view: provides a complete result set or is an error condition
MethoduseComparativeLogView
Description

The returns from the lookup methods may omit or translate elements based on this session, such as authorization, and not result in an error. This view is used when greater interoperability is desired at the expense of precision.

Compliancemandatory This method is must be implemented.
MethodusePlenaryLogView
Description

A complete view of the LogEntry and Log returns is desired. Methods will return what is requested or result in an error. This view is used when greater precision is desired at the expense of interoperability.

Compliancemandatory This method is must be implemented.
MethodcanLookupLogEntryLogMappings
Description

Tests if this user can perform lookups of logEntry/log mappings. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known lookup 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.

Returnboolean false if looking up mappings is not authorized, true otherwise
Compliancemandatory This method must be implemented.
