Interface CommitmentSmartCalendarSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface CommitmentSmartCalendarSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. A CommitmentQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this Calendar to create a virtual collection of Commitments . The entries may be sequenced using the CommitmentSearchOrder from this session.

This Calendar has a default query that matches any commitment and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a CommitmentQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a CommitmentQuery .
