OSID - osid.hold.rules.IssueConstrainerEnablerAdminSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.hold.rules.IssueConstrainerEnablerAdminSession
Implements	`osid.OsidSession`
Used By	`osid.hold.rules.HoldRulesManager`
Used By	`osid.hold.rules.HoldRulesProxyManager`
Description	This session creates, updates, and deletes `IssueConstrainerEnablers`. The data for create and update is provided by the consumer via the form object. `OsidForms` are requested for each create or update and may not be reused. Create and update operations differ in their usage. To create an `IssueConstrainerEnabler`, an `IssueConstrainerEnablerForm` is requested using `getIssueConstrainerEnablerFormForCreate()` specifying the desired record `Types` or none if no record `Types` are needed. The returned `IssueConstrainerEnablerForm` will indicate that it is to be used with a create operation and can be used to examine metdata or validate data prior to creation. Once the `IssueConstrainerEnablerForm` is submiited to a create operation, it cannot be reused with another create operation unless the first operation was unsuccessful. Each `IssueConstrainerEnablerForm` corresponds to an attempted transaction. For updates, `IssueConstrainerEnablerForms` are requested to the `IssueConstrainerEnabler` `Id` that is to be updated using `getIssueConstrainerEnablerFormForUpdate()`. Similarly, the `IssueConstrainerEnablerForm` has metadata about the data that can be updated and it can perform validation before submitting the update. The `IssueConstrainerEnablerForm` can only be used once for a successful update and cannot be reused. The delete operations delete `IssueConstrainerEnablers`. To unmap an `IssueConstrainerEnabler` from the current `Oubliette`, the `IssueConstrainerEnablerOublietteAssignmentSession` should be used. These delete operations attempt to remove the `IssueConstrainerEnabler` itself thus removing it from all known `Oubliette` catalogs. This session includes an `Id` aliasing mechanism to assign an external `Id` to an internally assigned `Id`.
