Implementsosid.OsidSession
Description

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogues. An OfferingConstrainerEnablerQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this Catalogue to create a virtual collection of offering constrainer enablers. The offering constrainer enablers may be sequenced using the OfferingConstrainerEnablerSearchOrder from this session.

This Catalogue has a default query that matches any offering constrainer enabler and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using an OfferingConstrainerEnablerQueryInspector. The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to an OfferingConstrainerEnablerQuery.
