Member Function Documentation

static PersProductItem::AutoPtr OSB_LIB::ProductItemFactory::create	(	ProductItem::Type	type,
		const PersProductItem::Oid &	oid
	)			[static]

Create a personalized product item.

Parameters:

	type	Identifies the type of object to create.
	oid	Object id of the new pers. product item.

Returns:

An auto pointer that owns a product item of the requested type. The pointer is 0 if either

• the product item type is not supported OR
• no pers. product item for this type exist.

Remarks:

The caller of the function is responsible to check the content of the returned auto pointer.

Even if a new product item type can not be personalized, the related type id should be added to the function body. This avoids later research work about the missing type.

static ProductItem::AutoPtr OSB_LIB::ProductItemFactory::create	(	ProductItem::Type	type,
		const ProductItem::Oid &	oid
	)			[static]

Create a product item.

Parameters:

	type	Identifies the type of object to create.
	oid	Object id of the new product item.

Returns:

An auto pointer that owns a product item of the requested type. If the product item type is not supported the pointer is 0.

Remarks:

The caller of the function should check the content of the returned auto pointer and take appropriate measures (e.g. throw an exception) if it is 0.
