    • getParent

      public abstract AdaptationHome getParent()
      Returns the parent dataspace of this AdaptationHome. Returns null if this is the reference dataspace.

      For a dataspace, its parent is always its initial snapshot. For a snapshot, its parent is always its parent dataspace.

    • getParentBranch

      public abstract AdaptationHome getParentBranch()
      Returns the parent dataspace or snapshot of this AdaptationHome. Returns null if this AdaptationHome is the reference dataspace.

      Note: For a dataspace, its direct parent is its initial snapshot, hence its parent dataspace is the parent of this initial snapshot. For a snapshot, its parent dataspace is its direct parent.

    • getBranchChildren

      public abstract List<AdaptationHome> getBranchChildren()
      Returns the dataspaces which have been created from this AdaptationHome.

      Note: A dataspace has no direct dataspace children; when a dataspace is created from another dataspace, first an initial snapshot is created, then the new dataspace is created from this initial snapshot.

      See Also:
    • getVersionChildren

      public abstract List<AdaptationHome> getVersionChildren()

    • getValidationReportsMap

      @Deprecated public abstract Map<AdaptationName,ValidationReport> getValidationReportsMap(Severity minimalSeverity)
      Deprecated.
    • getValidationReport

      public abstract DataspaceValidationReport getValidationReport(ValidationSpec aValidationSpec)
      Returns the validation report for this dataspace according to the specified properties.
      Warning: all datasets in the dataspace are validated according to the specified policy. This process can be time consuming.
      Since:
      6.1.1
      See Also:
    • getValidationReport

      public abstract DataspaceValidationReport getValidationReport(Severity minimalSeverity)
      Returns all validation reports for datasets in this AdaptationHome that have at least one validation item of the specified severity or higher.

      Since this method calls Adaptation.getValidationReport(false) on each dataset, it does not require the datasets to be activated.

      The rules for ensuring that data in EBX® remains valid, with respect to potential concurrent updates, are explained in the Consistency and validation section.

      Returns:
      DataspaceValidationReportImpl

    • resetValidationReports

      public final void resetValidationReports()
      Resets the validation reports of the datasets contained in this dataspace.

      See Also:
    • isTechnicalBranch

      public final boolean isTechnicalBranch()
      Returns true if this AdaptationHome is a technical dataspace. A technical dataspace is used internally used by EBX®, and cannot be closed or merged.
    • isUsedByValidation

      public abstract boolean isUsedByValidation()
      Checks whether the current instance of AdaptationHome is a dedicated validation dataspace. It returns true if this dataspace:
      • Contains persisted validation reports.
      • Is used to validate data.
      Since:
      6.1.1
    • isTechnicalVersion

      public final boolean isTechnicalVersion()
      Returns true if this AdaptationHome is a technical snapshot. A snapshot is technical if it is a snapshot of a technical dataspace.
