Interface IObjectBasedNavigation

All Superinterfaces:

com.sapportals.portal.prt.service.IService

public interface IObjectBasedNavigation

extends com.sapportals.portal.prt.service.IService

API that handles finding Navigation Tergets (e.g. iViews) according to client action that is performed over a BusinessObject.
(The APIs of this interface requires IPortalComponentRequest object) The connection between the BusinessObject and the relevant Navigation Targets is done using an Operation Object.
Operation object is bound under (i.e. Belongs to) a BusinessObject, while Operations are also implemented by a Terget.
Operation name has the following pattern: SystemAlias.BusinessObject.Operation.
The first two parts (SystemAlias.BusinessObject) are the name of the BusinessObject under which the Operation is bound.
All the methods get either the full Operation name or the BusinessObject name, and using the RoleService to find the Targets that implement the Operation.
