createParameter

public ProcessActivityParameter createParameter(java.lang.String name)
                                         throws NameSpaceException,
InvalidFormatException,
                                                oracle.wh.repos.sdk.processflow.exceptions.WBProcessInvalidOperationException,
OWBException

Creates a process activity parameter with a specfied name and direction.

Parameters:

name - The name with which to create the parameter

Returns:

The newly create activity parameter.

Throws:

NameSpaceException - if Process Flow Parameter name is not unique.

InvalidFormatException - if the desired name does not satisfy the format requirements.

oracle.wh.repos.sdk.processflow.exceptions.WBProcessInvalidOperationException - if the type of Parameter is one that cannot be created by a user.

OWBException - if any internal error is encountered.

createParameter

public ProcessActivityParameter createParameter(java.lang.String name,
                                                int direction)
                                         throws NameSpaceException,

OWBException

Creates a process activity parameter with a specfied name and direction.

Parameters:

name - The name with which to create the parameter

direction - The direction of the parameter, one of IN, OUT or INOUT

• ProcessActivityParameter.DIRECTION_INPUT
• ProcessActivityParameter.DIRECTION_OUTPUT
• ProcessActivityParameter.DIRECTION_INPUT_OUTPUT

Returns:

The newly create activity parameter.

Throws:

NameSpaceException - if Process Flow Parameter name is not unique.

InvalidFormatException - if the desired name does not satisfy the format requirements.

oracle.wh.repos.sdk.processflow.exceptions.WBProcessInvalidOperationException - if the type of Parameter is one that cannot be created by a user.

OWBException - if any internal error is encountered.

createParameter

public ProcessActivityParameter createParameter(java.lang.String name,
                                                int direction,
                                                boolean isFinal)
                                         throws NameSpaceException,
InvalidFormatException,
                                                oracle.wh.repos.sdk.processflow.exceptions.WBProcessInvalidOperationException,
OWBException

Creates a process activity parameter with a specfied name, direction and Boolean flag. If parameters are added to a parameter owner whose signature should not be altered, e.g. a parameter owner representing a mapping or a function, these objects cannot have their signatures altered.

Parameters:

name - The name with which to create the parameter

direction - The direction of the parameter, one of IN, OUT or INOUT

• ProcessActivityParameter.DIRECTION_INPUT
• ProcessActivityParameter.DIRECTION_OUTPUT
• ProcessActivityParameter.DIRECTION_INPUT_OUTPUT

• isFinal - Boolean flag indicating if this is parameter name or direction cannot (true) or can (false) be modified.

  Returns:

  The newly create activity parameter.

  Throws:

  NameSpaceException - if Process Flow Parameter name is not unique.

  InvalidFormatException - if the desired name does not satisfy the format requirements.

  oracle.wh.repos.sdk.processflow.exceptions.WBProcessInvalidOperationException - if the type of Parameter is one that cannot be created by a user.

  OWBException - if any internal error is encountered.

getParameters

public ProcessActivityParameter[] getParameters()

gets the array of Parameters of ProcessFlow or Activity.

Returns:

Arrary of ProcessActivityParameter object.

getParameters

public ProcessActivityParameter[] getParameters(int direction)

gets the array of Parameters of ProcessFlow or Activity.

Parameters:

direction - Process or Activity parameter.

Returns:

Arrary of ProcessActivityParameter object.

findParameter

public ProcessActivityParameter findParameter(java.lang.String name)

Finds the Parameter of ProcessFlow or Activity.

Parameters:

name - String object of Activity parameter.

Returns:

ProcessActivityParameter object.

getPosition

public int getPosition()
                throws OWBException

Retrive the position of the parameter in the signature of the owning function or mapping.

Returns:

the position of this parameter in the list of parameters.

Throws:

OWBException - if any internal error is encountered.

See Also:

setPosition(int)

setPosition

public void setPosition(int position)
                 throws OWBException

Set the position of the parameter in the signature of the owning function or mapping.

Parameters:

position - integer value of setting position for a parameter.

Throws:

OWBException - if any internal error is encountered.
