Interface RegistrationTargetSmartCourseCatalogSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface RegistrationTargetSmartCourseCatalogSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. A RegistrationTarget Query can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this CourseCatalog to create a virtual collection of RegistrationTar gets. The registration targets may be sequenced using the RegistrationTargetSearch Order from this session.

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