Runtime Objects

The Marketing System run-time implementation consists of several key objects. The following table describes each key object and its role.

Object	Description
CommerceContentSelectionModule	Responsible for creating the collection of ContentSelectionContext objects used in the site.
CommerceExpressionModule	Responsible for creating a default ExpressionEvaluator object for the site.
ContentItemCollection	Represents a set of rows in a ContentList.
ContentList Object	Use this object to access a particular collection of content items. The ContentList object provides aggregated access to the private data that it stores and to the shared data stored in the ContentListFactory object that created it.
ContentListFactory Object	Use this object to efficiently maintain lists of content items that compete with each other to be selected for display on a Web page by a Content Selection pipeline (CSP).

ContentSelector	The object used to invoke CSF pipelines.
DiscountCriteriaFilter	Use to specify the filtering options that you use on the ApplyProductFilter and ApplyCategoryFilter methods of the DiscountItemCollection class.

DiscountItemCollection	A collection of DiscountItem objects.
DiscountItemCollectionEnumerator	An enumerator for the DiscountItemCollection class.
