Interface HoldSmartOublietteSession

All Superinterfaces:
AutoCloseable, Closeable, OsidSession, OsidSession
public interface HoldSmartOublietteSession extends OsidSession

This session manages queries and sequencing to create "smart" dynamic catalogs. A HoldQuery can be retrieved from this session and oublietteped to this Oubliette to create a virtual collection of Holds. The holds may be sequenced using the HoldSearchOrder from this session.

This Oubliette has a default query that matches any hold and a default search order that specifies no sequencing. The queries may be examined using a HoldQueryInspector. The query may be modified by converting the inspector back to a HoldQuery.

Like all OsidSessions, HoldSmartOublietteSessions are dedicated to single processing threads and a single authenticated user.
