Interface AuctionProcessorSmartAuctionHouseSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface AuctionProcessorSmartAuctionHouseSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic auction houses. An AuctionProcessorQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this AuctionHouse to create a virtual collection of auction processors. The auction processor may be sequenced using the AuctionProcessorSearchOrder from this session.

This AuctionHouse has a default query that matches any auction processor and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using an AuctionProcessorQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to an AuctionProcessorQuery .
