OSID - osid.topology.rules.EdgeEnablerSearchSession Service Interface Definition

Interface	osid.topology.rules.EdgeEnablerSearchSession
Implements	`osid.topology.rules.EdgeEnablerQuerySession`
Description	This session provides methods for searching among `EdgeEnabler` objects. The search query is constructed using the `EdgeEnableryQuery.` `getEdgeEnablersByQuery()` is the basic search method and returns a list of `EdgeEnablers.` A more advanced search may be performed with `getEdgeEnablersBySearch().` It accepts an `EdgeEnablerSearch` in addition to the query for the purpose of specifying additional options affecting the entire search, such as ordering. `getEdgeEnablersBySearch()` returns an `EdgeEnablerSearchResults` that can be used to access the resulting `EdgeEnablerList` or be used to perform a search within the result set through `EdgeEnablerSearch.` This session defines views that offer differing behaviors for searching. federated graph view: searches include edge enablers in ontologies of which this graph is an ancestor in the graph hierarchy isolated graph view: searches are restricted to edge enablers in this graph `EdgeEnablers` may have a query record indicated by their respective record types. The query record is accessed via the `EdgeEnablerQuery.`
Method	getEdgeEnablerSearch
Description	Gets an edge enabler search.
Return	`osid.topology.rules.EdgeEnablerSearch`		the edge enabler search
