Interface DeedSmartCampusSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession

public interface DeedSmartCampusSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. A DeedQuery can be retrieved from this session and mapped to this Campus to create a virtual collection of Deeds . The deeds may be sequenced using the DeedSearchOrder from this session.

This Campus has a default query that matches any deed and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a DeedQueryInspector . The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a DeedQuery .
