Interfaceosid.calendaring.ScheduleLookupSession
Implementsosid.OsidSession
Description

This session provides methods for retrieving Schedules.

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors when retrieving multiple objects.

  • comparative view: elements may be silently omitted or re-ordered
  • plenary view: provides a complete set or is an error condition
  • isolated calendar view: All schedule methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to schedule defined explicitly in the current calendar. Using an isolated view is useful for managing schedule with the ScheduleAdminSession.
  • federated calendar view: All schedule methods in this session operate, retrieve and pertain to all schedule defined in this calendar and any other calendars implicitly available in this calendar through calendar inheritence.

Schedules may have an additional records indicated by their respective record types. The record may not be accessed through a cast of the Schedule.
