Method Detail

saveSUIDs

public static void saveSUIDs(CyJob job,
                             CyNetwork network,
                             List<? extends CyIdentifiable> objs)

This method may be used to save a list of SUIDs that have been sent to a remote service so that they may be restored later

Parameters:

job - the job that we're saving the SUIDs for

network - the network that the SUIDs are part of

objs - the Cytoscape objects whose SUIDs we want to save

restoreNetwork

public static CyNetwork restoreNetwork(CyJob job,
                                       CyNetworkManager netManager,
                                       Long networkSUID,
                                       boolean clear)

This method is used to restore a saved network based on the network SUID. This takes some special handling, since our access to the network tables are through the network itself, we need to use the network manager to get the list of networks in order to find the right network.

Parameters:

job - the CyJob we're restoring

netManager - the CyNetworkManager to get the list of networks

networkSUID - the SUIDof the network we're restoring

clear - if true, remove the column for this job

Returns:

the restored network or null if we can't find it

restoreSUIDs

public static Map<Long,CyIdentifiable> restoreSUIDs(CyJob job,
                                                    CyNetwork network,
                                                    List<Long> oldIds,
                                                    boolean clear)

Method to restore Cytoscape objects based on a list of SUIDs that were sent to the remote service as saved in the hidden table.

Parameters:

job - the CyJob we're restoring

network - the network the SUIDs are part of. See SaveSUID.restoreNetwork() for a method to get the network

oldIds - the list of old SUIDs that were sent to the remote server and saved in the session

clear - if true, remove the columns for this job

Returns:

a map that relates the original id to the Cytoscape object
