Interface PathNotificationSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface PathNotificationSession extends OsidSession

This session defines methods to receive notifications on adds/changes to Path objects in this Map . This also includes existing paths that may appear or disappear due to changes in the Map hierarchy, This session is intended for consumers needing to synchronize their state with this service without the use of polling. Notifications are cancelled when this session is closed.

The two views defined in this session correspond to the views in the PathLookupSession .
