Interface PoolConstrainerEnablerSmartDistributorSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface PoolConstrainerEnablerSmartDistributorSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. A PoolConstrainerEnablerQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this Distributor to create a virtual collection of PoolConstrainerEnablers . The pool constrainer enablers may be sequenced using the PoolConstrainerEnablerSearchOrder from this session.

This Distributor has a default query that matches any pool constrainer enabler and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a PoolConstrainerEnablerQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a PoolConstrainerEnablerQuery .
