Interface IPublishRuleSet

  • public interface IPublishRuleSet
    Represents a set of publishing rules. Publishing rules are ordered from lowest priority to highest priority. The priority assignment for publishing rules is not enforced by this interface. Various implementation may use different mechanisms such as a linear ordering of publishing rules in a configuration file or explicit assignment of priority levels ..etc. The publishing rule initialization needs to deal with reading the publishing rules, sorting them in increasing order of priority and presenting an ordered vector of publishing rules via the IPublishRuleSet interface. When a request comes, the predicates of the publishing rules will be checked in the order to find the first matched publishing rule as the mapping rule to (un)publish the object.
