Interfaceosid.bidding.rules.AuctionConstrainerEnablerRuleLookupSession
Implementsosid.OsidSession
Description

This session provides methods to retrieve AuctionConstrainerEnabler to AuctionConstrainer mappings. An Auction with multiple AuctionConstrainerEnablers means any positive rule evaluation across the enablers result in an effective Auction.

This lookup session defines several views:

  • comparative view: elements may be silently omitted or re-ordered
  • plenary view: provides a complete result set or is an error condition
  • isolated auction house view: All methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain auction constrainer enablers defined explicitly in the current auction house
  • federated auction house view: All methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to all auction constrainer enablers defined in this auction house and any other auction constrainer enablers implicitly available in this auction house through auction house inheritence.
