public interface ERXGuardedObjectInterface

The guarded object interface is used as a way to ensure that objects that are not supposed to be deleted or updated don't accidently get deleted or updated. Look at ERXGenericRecord for an implementation. This interface is also used within ERD2W applications to determine if the edit icon or the trash can icon should be displayed.

Method Summary

boolean	canDelete() Should return if this object can be deleted.
boolean	canUpdate() Should return if this object can be updated.
void	delete() To be implemented in order to determine additional operations to be done during deletion due to a bug in EOF that doesn't refresh relationships correctly in the parent editingContext

Method Detail

boolean canDelete()

Should return if this object can be deleted.

Returns:

if it is safe to delete

canUpdate

boolean canUpdate()

Should return if this object can be updated.

Returns:

if it is safe to update

delete

void delete()

To be implemented in order to determine additional operations to be done during deletion due to a bug in EOF that doesn't refresh relationships correctly in the parent editingContext
