identifies the layers within this stratum which should be read and
merged to determine data of a component for an entity
Parameter aComponent
The name of the component to access.
Parameter aEntity
The name of an entity on behalf of which data will be accessed.
Returns
a list of layer identifiers that can be used to
retrieve Layer objects.
The list ist ordered by priority. Typically
the most general layers (global defaults,
entire organization) are first, more specific layers
(associated to specific groups or roles) are next
and the entity's own data is last.
Throws
com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException
if the component identifier is invalid or
if the entity doesn't exist.
Throws
com::sun::star::configuration::backend::BackendAccessException
if an error occurs while accessing the data.
An empty timestamp indicates, that the layer should be
retrieved irrespective of its modification time.
The format and meaning of a timestamp depends on
the implementation. Timestamps can be obtained using
::com::sun::star::util::XTimeStamped::getTimestamp().
Returns
a Layer object providing access to the layer data,
NULL if the layer is newer than indicated by the timestamp.
Throws
com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException
if the layer id is invalid or
if the timestamp is invalid
Throws
com::sun::star::configuration::backend::BackendAccessException
if an error occurs while accessing the data.
retrieves the layers associated to a series of layer ids,
if newer than indicated.
A timestamp can be provided, which is used to indicate
a point in time. Only layers that are modified since that time
should be returned. The same timestamp is used for all layers.
An empty timestamp indicates, that the layers should be
retrieved irrespective of their modification time.
The format and meaning of a timestamp depends on
the implementation. Timestamps can be obtained using
::com::sun::star::util::XTimeStamped::getTimestamp().
Returns
a list of Layer objects
providing access to the layer data.
The list has the same length as aLayerIds. Each layer
object is associated to the layer id in the corresponding
position.
For layers that are newer than indicated by the
timestamp, the list contains a NULL element.
Throws
com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException
if one of the layer ids is invalid or
if the timestamp is invalid
Throws
com::sun::star::configuration::backend::BackendAccessException
if an error occurs while accessing the data.
retrieves the layers associated to a series of layer ids,
if newer than indicated for each layer.
For each layer an individual timestamp can be provided,
which is used to indicate the last known version of the layer.
Only layers that are modified since that time should be returned.
This list must have the same length as aLayerIds.
Timestamps are matched to layer ids by their position.
An empty timestamp indicates, that the associated layer
should be retrieved irrespective of its modification time.
The format and meaning of a timestamp depends on
the implementation. Timestamps can be obtained using
::com::sun::star::util::XTimeStamped::getTimestamp().
Returns
a list of Layer objects
providing access to the layer data.
The list has the same length as aLayerIds. Each layer
object is associated to the layer id in the corresponding
position.
For layers that are newer than indicated by the corresponding
timestamp, the list contains a NULL element.
Throws
com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException
if one of the layer ids is invalid or
if one of the timestamps is invalid or
if the lengths of the arguments don't match.
Throws
com::sun::star::configuration::backend::BackendAccessException
if an error occurs while accessing the data.
