Description

This session provides methods to re-assign CourseEntries to CourseCatalogs . A CourseEntry may appear in multiple CourseCatalogs and removing the last reference to a CourseEntry is the equivalent of deleting it. Each CourseCatalog may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it.

Adding a reference of a CourseEntry to another CourseCatalog is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id ).
