Interface BrokerConstrainerEnablerDistributorAssignmentSession

All Superinterfaces:

java.lang.AutoCloseable, java.io.Closeable, OsidSession

public interface BrokerConstrainerEnablerDistributorAssignmentSession
extends OsidSession

This session provides methods to re-assign BrokerConstrainerEnabler to Distributor mappings. A BrokerConstrainerEnabler may appear in multiple Distributor objects and removing the last reference to a BrokerConstrainerEnabler is the equivalent of deleting it. Each Distributor may have its own authorizations governing who is allowed to operate on it.

Adding a reference of a BrokerConstrainerEnabler to another Distributor is not a copy operation (eg: does not change its Id ).
