Interface RegistrationSmartCourseCatalogSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface RegistrationSmartCourseCatalogSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. A RegistrationQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this CoursOfferingeCatalog to create a virtual collection of Registrations . The registrations may be sequenced using the RegistrationSearchOrder from this session.

This CourseCatalog has a default query that matches any registration and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a RegistrationQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a RegistrationQuery .
