public interface IAdvancedDeepFindResourcesDescriptor

extends IAdvancedChildrenFindResourcesDescriptor

Interface describing a find descriptor for resources supporting find operations for different depths. A depth of n always incldues the resources at the lower n-1 levels, i.e. at a depth of 1, also the root resource is meant (in contrast to find children operations); the behavior is only defined for the values 0, 1 and MAX(INTEGER); the support of the depths 0 and 1 is mandatory; for all other values a definition could be found, but the definiton would exceed the functionality of many so far known repositories (DASL conform repositories) and it's support might be difficult to inquire (in case of a remote repository).

Method Summary

int

getDepth() Get depth to be used to find resources at the given depth and all levels below this depth, i.e. at a depth of 1, also the root resource is meant (in contrast to find children operations); the behavior is only defined for the values 0, 1 and MAX(INTEGER); the support of the depths 0 and 1 is mandatory; for all other values a definition could be found, but the definiton would exceed the functionality of many so far known repositories (DASL conform repositories) and it's support might be difficult to inquire (in case of a remote repository).
