_ServiceFactoryOperationsNC (omero-blitz 5.5.3 API)

All Superinterfaces:

Glacier2._SessionOperationsNC

All Known Subinterfaces:

ServiceFactory

All Known Implementing Classes:

```
public interface _ServiceFactoryOperationsNC
extends _SessionOperationsNC
```
Starting point for all OMERO.blitz interaction.
A ServiceFactory once acquired can be used to create any number of service proxies to the server. Most services implement ServiceInterface or its subinterface StatefulServiceInterface.

Method Summary

All Methods Instance Methods Abstract Methods
Modifier and Type	Method and Description
`java.util.List<java.lang.String>`	`activeServices()` Returns a list of string ids for currently active services.
`void`	`closeOnDestroy()` Marks the session for closure rather than detachment, which will be triggered by the destruction of the Glacier2 connection via router.destroySession() Closing the session rather the detaching is more secure, since all resources are removed from the server and can safely be set once it is clear that a client is finished with those resources.
`StatefulServiceInterfacePrx`	`createByName(java.lang.String name)` Allows looking up any stateful service by name.
`ExporterPrx`	`createExporter()`
`JobHandlePrx`	`createJobHandle()`
`RawFileStorePrx`	`createRawFileStore()`
`RawPixelsStorePrx`	`createRawPixelsStore()`
`RenderingEnginePrx`	`createRenderingEngine()`
`SearchPrx`	`createSearchService()`
`ThumbnailStorePrx`	`createThumbnailStore()`
`void`	`detachOnDestroy()` Marks the session for detachment rather than closure, which will be triggered by the destruction of the Glacier2 connection via router.destroySession() This is the default and allows a lost session to be reconnected, at a slight security cost since the session will persist longer and can be used by others if the UUID is intercepted.

  - getSecurityContexts
```
java.util.List<IObject> getSecurityContexts()
                                     throws ServerError
```
    Provides a list of all valid security contexts for this session. Each of the returned IObject instances can be passed to setSecurityContext.
    
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - setSecurityContext
```
IObject setSecurityContext(IObject obj)
                    throws ServerError
```
    Changes the security context for the current session.
    A security context limits the set of objects which will be returned by all queries and restricts what updates can be made.
    
    Current valid values for security context:
    - ExperimenterGroup - logs into a specific group
    - Share - uses IShare to activate a share
    Passing an unloaded version of either object type will change the way the current session operates. Note: only objects which are returned by the getSecurityContext method are considered valid. Any other instance will cause an exception to be thrown.
    
    Example usage in Python:
    sf = client.createSession() objs = sf.getSecurityContexts() old = sf.setSecurityContext(objs\[-1])
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - setSecurityPassword
```
void setSecurityPassword(java.lang.String password)
                  throws ServerError
```
    Re-validates the password for the current session. This prevents See methods that mention "HasPassword".

  - getByName
```
ServiceInterfacePrx getByName(java.lang.String name)
                       throws ServerError
```
    Allows looking up any stateless service by name. See Constants.ice for examples of services. If a service has been added by third-parties, getByName can be used even though no concrete method is available.
    
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - createByName

    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - setCallback
```
void setCallback(ClientCallbackPrx callback)
          throws ServerError
```
    Sets the single callback used by the ServiceFactory to communicate with the client application. A default callback is set by the omero::client object on session creation which should suffice for most usage. See the client object's documentation in each language mapping for ways to use the callback.
    
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - closeOnDestroy
```
void closeOnDestroy()

```
    Marks the session for closure rather than detachment, which will be triggered by the destruction of the Glacier2 connection via router.destroySession() Closing the session rather the detaching is more secure, since all resources are removed from the server and can safely be set once it is clear that a client is finished with those resources.
    
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - detachOnDestroy
```
void detachOnDestroy()
              throws ServerError
```
    Marks the session for detachment rather than closure, which will be triggered by the destruction of the Glacier2 connection via router.destroySession() This is the default and allows a lost session to be reconnected, at a slight security cost since the session will persist longer and can be used by others if the UUID is intercepted.
    
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - activeServices
```
java.util.List<java.lang.String> activeServices()
                                         throws ServerError
```
    Returns a list of string ids for currently active services. This will _not_ keep services alive, and in fact checks for all expired services and removes them.
    
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - keepAllAlive
```
long keepAllAlive(ServiceInterfacePrx[] proxies)
           throws ServerError
```
    Requests that the given services be marked as alive. It is possible that one of the services has already timed out, in which case the returned long value will be non-zero. Specifically, the bit representing the 0-based index will be 1: if (retval & 1<<idx == 1<<idx) { // not alive } Except for fatal server or session errors, this method should never throw an exception.
    
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
  - keepAlive
```
boolean keepAlive(ServiceInterfacePrx proxy)
           throws ServerError
```
    Returns true if the given service is alive. Except for fatal server or session errors, this method should never throw an exception.
    
    Throws:
    
    ServerError
