Interface OperationsMetadata

Show UML class diagram

public interface OperationsMetadata

Represents the OperationMetadata part in the capabilities document of an OGC-web service according to the OWS Common Implementation Specification 0.3 (and especially owsOperationsMetadata.xsd). As this class is abstract, it only defines the GetCapabilities operation, which all types of OWS Common -compliant web services must implement.

It consists of the following elements:

Name Occurences Function
ows:Operation 2-* Metadata for unordered list of all the (requests for) operations that this server interface implements. The list of required and optional operations implemented shall be specified in the Implementation Specification for this service.
ows:Parameter 0-* Optional unordered list of parameter valid domains that each apply to one or more operations which this server interface implements. The list of required and optional parameter domain limitations shall be specified in the Implementation Specification for this service.
ows:Constraint 0-* Optional unordered list of valid domain constraints on non-parameter quantities that each apply to this server. The list of required and optional constraints shall be specified in the Implementation Specification for this service.
ows:ExtendedCapabilities 0 or 1 Individual software vendors and servers can use this element to provide metadata about any additional server abilities.


Method Summary
 DomainType[] getConstraints()
          Returns the constraints.
 Operation getGetCapabilitiesOperation()
          Returns The configuration for the GetCapabilities operation.
 Operation[] getOperations()
          Returns all Operation configurations.
 DomainType[] getParameter()
          Returns a list of parameters assigned directly to the OperationsMetadata.
