Interface CommissionSmartFoundrySession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface CommissionSmartFoundrySession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. A CommissionQuery can be retrieved from this session and foundryped to this Foundry to create a virtual collection of Commissions . The commissions may be sequenced using the CommissionSearchOrder from this session.

This Foundry has a default query that matches any commission and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a CommissionQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a CommissionQuery .
