OSID - osid.recipe.DirectionCookbookAssignmentSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.recipe.DirectionCookbookAssignmentSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Used By	`osid.recipe.RecipeManager`
Used By	`osid.recipe.RecipeProxyManager`
Description	This session provides methods to re-assign `Directions` to `Cookbook` mappings. A `Direction` may appear in multiple `Cookbook` objects and removing the last reference to a `Direction` is the equivalent of deleting it. Each `Cookbook` may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it. Adding a reference of a `Direction` to another `Cookbook` is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its `Id` ).
Method	canAssignDirections
Description	Tests if this user can alter direction/cookbook mappings. A return of true does not guarantee successful authorization. A return of false indicates that it is known mapping methods in this session will result in a `PERMISSION_DENIED` . This is intended as a hint to an application that may opt not to offer lookup operations to unauthorized users.
Return	`boolean`		`false` if direction is not authorized, `true` otherwise
Compliance	`mandatory`		This method must be implemented.
Method	canAssignDirectionsToCookbook

Parameters	`osid.id.Id`	`cookbookId`	the `Id` of the `Cookbook`
Errors	NOT_FOUND		`directionId` or `cookbookId` not found or `directionId` not assigned to `cookbookId`
	NULL_ARGUMENT		`directionId` or `cookbookId` is `null`
	OPERATION_FAILED		unable to complete request
