Public Class Methods
This method queries the database for matching output channels and returns a list of ids. If no output channels are found an empty list will be returned. This method can accept the following named parameters to specify the search. Some fields support matching and are marked with an (M). The value for these fields will be interpreted as an SQL match expression and will be matched case-insensitively. Other fields must specify an exact string to match. Match fields combine to narrow the search results (via ANDs in an SQL WHERE clause). The output channel's name. The output channel's description. The output channel's site. The output channel's protocol. The output channel's filename. The output channel's file extension. Boolean; by default returns all output channels. Boolean; set false to return deleted output channels. Throws: Side Effects: NONE Notes: NONE The export method retrieves a set of assets from the database, serializes them and returns them as a single XML document. See Bric::SOAP for the schema of the returned document. Accepted paramters are: Specifies a single output_channel_id to be retrieved. Specifies a list of output_channel_ids. The value for this option should be an array of integer "output_channel_id" assets. Throws: Side Effects: NONE Notes: NONE The create method creates new objects using the data contained in an XML document of the format created by export(). Returns a list of new ids created in the order of the assets in the document. Available options: The XML document containing objects to be created. The document must contain at least one asset object. Throws: Side Effects: NONE Notes: NONE The update method updates an asset using the data in an XML document of the format created by export(). A common use of update() is to export() a selected object, make changes to one or more fields and then submit the changes with update(). Returns a list of new ids created in the order of the assets in the document. Takes the following options: The XML document where the objects to be updated can be found. The document must contain at least one asset and may contain any number of related asset objects. A list of "output_channel_id" integers for the assets to be updated. These must match id attributes on asset elements in the document. If you include objects in the document that are not listed in update_ids then they will be treated as in create(). For that reason an update() with an empty update_ids list is equivalent to a create(). Throws: Side Effects: NONE Notes: NONE The delete() method deletes assets. It takes the following options: Specifies a single asset ID to be deleted. Specifies a list of asset IDs to delete. Throws: Side Effects: NONE Notes: NONE Returns the module name, that is the first argument passed to bric_soap. Returns true if $param is an allowed parameter to the $method method.

Private Class Methods
This method provides the meat of both create() and update(). The only difference between the two methods is that update_ids will be empty on create(). Serializes a single output channel object into an <output_channel> using the given writer and args. Scott Lanning <lannings@who.int> Bric::SOAP, Bric::SOAP::Asset
