Interface ResourceSpace

All Known Implementing Classes:

SimpleResourceSpace

public interface ResourceSpace

The repository of Resource objects bound in a FacetMap. Like Resource itself, this interface is broadly designed to be applied to pre-existing application-specific classes, and therefore tries to be generic.

Method Summary

java.util.Collection	getAll() Returns all resources.
Resource	getById(int id)
int	getResourceCount()

getAll

public java.util.Collection getAll()
                            throws InternalException

If it is impossible or undesirable to return the entire set of resources, this method should return null.
