Remarks

The ISession interface is the base interface for all sessions. It contains a Id property for identifying the session.

A session is a shared context among all participants in a communication exchange. This shared context is characterized by the following three properties:

• Session establishment - a process for establishing shared context among all participants.

• Message correlation - a method for correlating a group of messages to an instance of shared context.

• The ISession interface is not informed as to the number of participants in a session or the lifetime of a session.

These session properties are provided by associating an ID with a session.

ISession is inherited by:

• IInputSession

• IOutputSession

• IDuplexSession

• ISessionChannel<TSession> of type ISession

Properties

Id	Gets the ID that uniquely identifies the session.
