Class UserRight

  • All Implemented Interfaces:
    java.io.Serializable, java.lang.Comparable

    public class UserRight
    extends GeneratedUserRight
    This class defines a right which can be assigned to Principals and Items. A right itself has not much functionality but stores only the informations upon this right.

    Conventions for item access rights:
    To model access rights on items, it is recommended to follow the pattern of defining a code prefix for an item group, such as "product", and creating user rights for each combination of this code prefix with the code suffixes ".read", ".change", ".create", ".remove", ".commit", and ".changerights".

        protected Item createItem​(SessionContext ctx,
                                  ComposedType type,
                                  Item.ItemAttributeMap allAttributes)
                           throws JaloBusinessException
        Description copied from class: Item
        Has to be implemented for each concrete subtype of item. This method is responsible for creating a new item instance ( by calling managers, ejb homes, etc. ) during ComposedType.newInstance(Map).

        In case this method uses any of the attribute values during creation it is required to override Item.getNonInitialAttributes(SessionContext, ItemAttributeMap) too.
        Sn example:

        
         public static final String MY_ATTRIBUTE = "someAttribute"; ... protected Item createItem(SessionContext
         ctx, ComposedType type, Map allAttributes ) throws JaloBusinessException { MyManager man = ... return
         man.createMyItem( (String)allAttributes.get(MY_ATTRIBUTE) );
         // here MY_ATTRIBUTE is used for creation, so it must not be set again } protected Map getNonInitialAttributes(
         SessionContext ctx, Map allAttributes ) { // let superclass remove its own initial attributes Map ret =
         super.getNonInitialAttributes( ctx, allAttributes );
         // remove MY_ATTRIBUTE from all attributes since if has already been set ret.remove(MY_ATTRIBUTE); return ret; }
        
         
        Overrides:
        createItem in class GenericItem
        Parameters:
        ctx - the current session context which this item is created within
        type - the actual item type ( since subtypes may not provide a own jalo class this may be different from the type which this method was implemented for )
        Returns:
        the new item instance
        Throws:
        JaloBusinessException - indicates an error during creation - any changes will be rollbacked
