                                   java.rmi.RemoteException

Description copied from interface: InformationServiceInterface

Search the user's connected repositories. The objects that are returned are not cached, and are in a generic container that is not remotable, doesn't go to the server for data that wasn't originally retrieved, and not persistable. This allows applications that are only displaying basic object information to perform much more lightweight and efficient operations, and only get "real" objects that can be manipulated and persisted when needed.

It's generally a good idea when using this method to use a template. Otherwise, a basic template will be used that will get keywords, but no other associated objects. Not all repository types will honor a template, but SAS Metadata Server searches need one to get a useful set of data. Set the template on the Filter using the setOMRTemplate method.

Specified by:

browseSearch in interface InformationServiceInterface

Parameters:

user - The UserContext to perform the search for.

filter - A Filter to limit the objects returned to those the client is interested in.

Returns:

A List of BrowseMetadataInterface objects.

                                      java.rmi.RemoteException

Register a metadata change listener. These should typically be only RepositoryInterface implementers, and this call should be made by the Repository connect() method. The Information Service is the clearinghouse for metadata change notifications. Each repository should notify the Information Service when it persists a change to the backing store. The Information Service then notifies all the other repositories, so hopefully the data stays as up-to-date as possible.

Specified by:

addMetadataChangeListener in interface InformationServiceInterface

Parameters:

listener - A MetadataChangeListener to add to the list.

url - A URL that represents the server to receive notifications for.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the url is invalid.

java.rmi.RemoteException - in the event of remote object failure.

ServiceException - if a service level error occurs.

removeMetadataChangeListener

public void removeMetadataChangeListener(MetadataChangeListener listener,

Remove a metadata change listener. This should only be called by a Repository close() method.

Specified by:

removeMetadataChangeListener in interface InformationServiceInterface

Parameters:

listener - The listener to remove.

url - The url for the server the listener is listening for.

Throws:

java.lang.IllegalArgumentException - if the url is invalid.

java.rmi.RemoteException - in the event of remote object failure.

metadataChange

public void metadataChange(MetadataChangeEvent event)
                    throws java.rmi.RemoteException

Specified by:

metadataChange in interface InformationServiceInterface

Parameters:

event - the MetadataChangeEvent that describes what changed.

Throws:

java.rmi.RemoteException - in the event of remote object failure.
