Interface DemographicEnablerSmartBinSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface DemographicEnablerSmartBinSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic bins. A DemographicEnablerQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this Bin to create a virtual collection of demographic enablers. The demographic enablers may be sequenced using the DemographicEnablerSearchOrder from this session.

This Bin has a default query that matches any demographic enabler and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a DemographicEnablerQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a DemographicEnablerQuery .
