Interface AuditConstrainerSmartInquestSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface AuditConstrainerSmartInquestSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. An AuditConstrainerQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this Inquest to create a virtual collection of AuditConstrainers . The audit constrainers may be sequenced using the AuditConstrainerSearchOrder from this session.

This Inquest has a default query that matches any audit constrainer and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using an AuditConstrainerQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to an AuditConstrainerQuery .
