## com.bea.content.spi
Interface ExtendedObjectClassOps

All Superinterfaces
  ObjectClassOps, Serializable

Deprecated As of 10.2, replaced by `ObjectClassOpsV1`. The SPI interfaces in the com.bea.content.spi package have all been deprecated as of 10.2. BEA does not intend to remove these interfaces during the next major release of WebLogic Portal. However, please note that new development should take place using the com.bea.content.spi.flexspi interfaces going forward.

    @Deprecated
    public interface ExtendedObjectClassOps

extends ObjectClassOps, Serializable

This ObjectsOps interface was added so that if customers choose, they can implement it to get new functionality from the CM system.

Method Summary
`QueryResult<ObjectClass>` | `getChildObjectClasses(ID objectClassId, QueryCriteria queryCriteria)` Deprecated Retreives the first level of types which extend the given type in some way.
`Set<String>` | `getNativeFilterableProperties(String repositoryName)` Deprecated Returns a set of property names which the repository can filter natively (within the repository instead of the federated API) for paging purposes.
`Set<String>` | `getNativeSortableProperties(String repositoryName)` Deprecated Returns a set of property names which the repository can sort natively (within the repository instead of the federated API) for paging purposes.
`ObjectClass` | `getObjectClass(String name)` Deprecated Gets the ObjectClass with the given name.
`ObjectClass[]` | `getObjectClasses(QueryCriteria queryCriteria)` Deprecated Gets all of the ObjectClasses available in the content repository.
`ObjectClass` | `save(ObjectClass objectClass)` Deprecated This method updates an existing object class in a single transaction.

Method Detail

### getChildObjectClasses

    QueryResult<ObjectClass> getChildObjectClasses(ID objectClassId,
                                                   QueryCriteria queryCriteria)
                                                   throws NoSuchObjectClassException,
                                                          RepositoryException

  Deprecated
  Retreives the first level of types which extend the given type in some way. For example Type A is extended by Type B which is extended by Type C. If called with Type A, the results will be Type B. If called with Type B, the results will be Type C. The results are ordered by the type's path.

  Parameters
    `objectClassId` - The ID of the type
    `queryCriteria` - The query criteria for this operation
  Returns
    An ordered `Collection` of types which extend the given type. Ordered by path.
  Throws
    `NoSuchObjectClassException` - If the given type doesn't exist.
    `RepositoryException` - If the operation fails.

### save

    ObjectClass save(ObjectClass objectClass)
                     throws AuthorizationException,
                            ObjectClassInUseException,
                            RepositoryException

  Deprecated
  This method updates an existing object class in a single transaction. The changed object class attributes will be updated accordingly, including changed property definitions and property choices. This is a less granular way of performing actions like createPropertyDefinition, renameObjectClass and updatePropertyDefiniton. The object class is assumed to be retrieved from this API and therefore properly formed when this call is made. Therefore if this method is called and some property definitions are not specified, those definitions values will be removed. The following object class attributes are cannot be modified via this API: path (modifying the parent will cause the object class path to be updated properly).

  Parameters
    `objectClass` - The object class to update.
  Returns
    The updated objectClass
  Throws
    `AuthorizationException` - - if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to perform it.
    `ObjectClassInUseException` - if the type is in use and the update to be performed is illegal.
    `RepositoryException` - - if error occurs during the update operation.

### getObjectClass

    ObjectClass getObjectClass(String name)
                               throws AuthorizationException,
                                      NoSuchObjectClassException,
                                      RepositoryException

  Deprecated
  Gets the ObjectClass with the given name.

  Parameters
    `name` - - the name of the ObjectClass to get.
  Returns
    ObjectClass - the ObjectClass with the given name.
  Throws
    `AuthorizationException` - - if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to perform it.
    `NoSuchObjectClassException` - - if the ObjectClass to get does not exist.
    `RepositoryException` - - if the repository encounters an error during the operation.

### getObjectClasses

    ObjectClass[] getObjectClasses(QueryCriteria queryCriteria)
                                   throws AuthorizationException

  Deprecated
  Gets all of the ObjectClasses available in the content repository.

  Parameters
    `queryCriteria` - - The query criteria for this operation
  Returns
    ObjectClass[] - an array of all ObjectClasses, an empty array if none are currently defined.
  Throws
    `AuthorizationException` - - if the user attempting the operation is not authorized to perform it.

### getNativeSortableProperties

    Set<String> getNativeSortableProperties(String repositoryName)
                                            throws RepositoryException

  Deprecated
  Returns a set of property names which the repository can sort natively (within the repository instead of the federated API) for paging purposes.

  Parameters
    `repositoryName` - The name of the repository.
  Returns
    The property names which can be sorted at the repository level.
  Throws
    `RepositoryException` - If the operation does not succeed.

### getNativeFilterableProperties

    Set<String> getNativeFilterableProperties(String repositoryName)
                                              throws RepositoryException

  Deprecated
  Returns a set of property names which the repository can filter natively (within the repository instead of the federated API) for paging purposes.

  Parameters
    `repositoryName` - The name of the repository.
  Returns
    The property names which can be filtered at the repository level.
  Throws
    `RepositoryException` - If the operation does not succeed.
