Method Detail

createExternalLink

IResource createExternalLink(String name,
                             IUriReference target,
                             boolean isPermanent,
                             IPosition position,
                             IPropertyMap properties,
                             boolean ignorePropertyFailures)
                             throws ResourceException

Creates an external link, compatible to LinkType.EXTERNAL

Parameters:

name - member name in collection

isPermanent - whether the redirection is temporary (continue using the RID of the link) or permanent (use of the RID of the link discouraged)

position - position where to create the link (or null when unspecified)

properties - initial property map for link resource

ignorePropertyFailures - set to true to ignore errors while initializing the property map

target - link target (either an absolute URI or a relative URI reference starting with an absolute path)

Returns:

link resource

Throws:

ResourceException

createExternalLink

IResource createExternalLink(String name,
                             IUri target,

                             IPosition position,
                             IPropertyMap properties,
                             boolean ignorePropertyFailures)
                             throws ResourceException

Deprecated. use createExternalLink(String, IUriReference, boolean, IPosition, IPropertyMap, boolean) instead

Throws:

ResourceException

createInternalDynamicLink

IResource createInternalDynamicLink(String name,
                                    RID targetRid,
                                    IPosition position,
                                    IPropertyMap properties,
                                    boolean ignorePropertyFailures)
                                    throws ResourceException

Creates an internal link that automatically follows the target resource and disappears when the link target disappears. Note that this type of link can only be created when the link target already exists.

Note that a relative RID will be resolved upon creation of the link resource.

Parameters:

name - member name in collection

targetRid - link target

position - position where to create the link (or null when unspecified)

properties - initial property map for link resource

ignorePropertyFailures - set to true to ignore errors while initializing the property map

Returns:

link resource

Throws:

ResourceException

                                   NotSupportedException

Creates a new workspace resource.

Parameters:

createVersionControlledResource

IResource createVersionControlledResource(RID baseRevisionRid,
                                          String name,
                                          IPosition position)

                                                 NotSupportedException

If called on a workspace controlled collection, a new version controlled resource based on the given revision is created

Parameters:

baseRevisionRid - the rid of the new vcr's base revision

name - member name in collection

position - position where to create the vcr (or null when unspecified)

Returns:

version controlled resource
