public interface Maintainable
extends ViewHelperService, Serializable

Provides contract for implementing a maintenance object within the maintenance framework

Currently the Maintainable serves many purposes. First since all maintenance documents share the same document class MaintenanceDocumentBase certain document callbacks such as workflow post processing are invoked on the maintainable. Second the maintainable provides a hook for custom actions on the maintenance view. Finally since the maintainable extends ViewHelperService it is used to customize View configuration for MaintenanceDocumentView instances

Method Detail

setDocumentNumber

Sets the document number on this maintainable for referencing back to the containing MaintenanceDocument

Parameters:

documentNumber - - document number for the containing maintenance document

getDocumentTitle

String getDocumentTitle(MaintenanceDocument document)

Invoked when setting the title for the document instance in workflow (doc search results) to customize the title

Parameters:

document - - maintenance document instance to build title for

Returns:

String document title

getDataObject

Object getDataObject()

Returns instance of the data object that is being maintained

Returns:

Object data object instance

setDataObject

void setDataObject(Object object)

Sets an instance of a data object that should be maintained

Parameters:

object - - data object instance

getDataObjectClass

Class getDataObjectClass()

Returns the class for the data object being maintained

Returns:

Class data object class

setDataObjectClass

void setDataObjectClass(Class dataObjectClass)

Sets the class for the data object that will be maintained

Parameters:

dataObjectClass - - class for maintenance data object

isLockable

boolean isLockable()

Indicates whether the object can be locked

If this method is overridden, most likely getPersistableBusinessObject() should be overridden as well.

Returns:

true if maintenance is lockable, false otherwise

getPersistableBusinessObject

PersistableBusinessObject getPersistableBusinessObject()

Returns the persistable business object or null if none exists.

Returns:

persistable buisness object

getMaintenanceAction

String getMaintenanceAction()

Returns the type of maintenance action this maintainable has been configured with

Returns:

String maintenance action string

setMaintenanceAction

void setMaintenanceAction(String maintenanceAction)

Sets the type of maintenance action to be performed (new, edit, or copy)

Parameters:

maintenanceAction - - string identifying the action type

generateMaintenanceLocks

List<MaintenanceLock> generateMaintenanceLocks()

Invoked to generating the list of maintenance locks used to block other edits of the same data object record

Returns:

the locking representation(s) of this document, which are reproducible given the same keys and the same maintainable object

saveDataObject

void saveDataObject()

Invoked to persist changes to the data object being maintained

Called after the maintenance document has become final indicating the changes should be applied

deleteDataObject

void deleteDataObject()

Invokes to delete the data object being maintained

Called after the maintenance document has become final indicating the changes should be applied

doRouteStatusChange

void doRouteStatusChange(DocumentHeader documentHeader)

Invoked do perform custom processing when the route status for the containing maintenance document changes

Usually used for determining when the document has become final so further actions can take place in addition to the usual persistence of the object changes

Parameters:

documentHeader - - document header instance for containing maintenance document which can be used to check the new status

getLockingDocumentId

String getLockingDocumentId()

Retrieves the locking document id for the maintainable which is used to create the maintenance lock string

Returns:

String locking id

See Also:

getCustomLockDescriptor(org.kuali.rice.kim.api.identity.Person)

getCustomLockDescriptor

String getCustomLockDescriptor(Person user)

Generates a custom lock descriptor for pessimistic locking. This method should not be called unless useCustomLockDescriptors() returns true
