This session provides methods for searching Module objects. The search query is constructed using the ModuleQuery. The module record Type also specifies the record for the module query.

getModulesByQuery() is the basic search method and returns a list of CourseCatalog elements. A more advanced search may be performed with getModulesBySearch(). It accepts a ModuleSearch in addition to the query for the purpose of specifying additional options affecting the entire search, such as ordering. getModulesBySearch() returns a ModuleSearchResults that can be used to access the resulting ModuleList or be used to perform a search within the result set through ModuleSearch.

Modules may have a query record indicated by their respective record types. The query record is accessed via the ModuleQuery. The returns in this session may not be cast directly to these interfaces.
