Interface Version

All Superinterfaces:

Item, Node, Version

public interface Version
extends Version

A Version object wraps an nt:version node. It provides convenient access to version information.

Method Summary

Node	getFrozenNode() Returns the frozen node of this version.
Version	getLinearPredecessor() Assuming that this Version object was acquired through a Workspace W and is within the VersionHistory H, this method returns the predecessor of this version along the same line of descent as is returned by H.getAllLinearVersions() where H was also acquired through W.
Version	getLinearSuccessor() Assuming that this Version object was acquired through a Workspace W and is within the VersionHistory H, this method returns the successor of this version along the same line of descent as is returned by H.getAllLinearVersions() where H was also acquired through W.

Method Detail

getLinearSuccessor

Version getLinearSuccessor()
                           throws RepositoryException

Assuming that this Version object was acquired through a Workspace W and is within the VersionHistory H, this method returns the successor of this version along the same line of descent as is returned by H.getAllLinearVersions() where H was also acquired through W.

Note that under simple versioing the behavior of this method is equivalent to getting the unique successor (if any) of this version.

Returns:

a Version or null if no linear successor exists.

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occurs.

VersionHistory.getAllLinearVersions()

getLinearPredecessor

Version getLinearPredecessor()
                             throws RepositoryException

Assuming that this Version object was acquired through a Workspace W and is within the VersionHistory H, this method returns the predecessor of this version along the same line of descent as is returned by H.getAllLinearVersions() where H was also acquired through W.

Note that under simple versioning the behavior of this method is equivalent to getting the unique predecessor (if any) of this version.

Returns:

a Version or null if no linear predecessor exists.

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occurs.

VersionHistory.getAllLinearVersions()

getFrozenNode

Node getFrozenNode()
                   throws RepositoryException

Returns the frozen node of this version.

Returns:

a Node object

Throws:

RepositoryException - if an error occurs.
