public interface RepositoryManager
extends Serializable

This class acts as a virtual repository to all configured repositories. It is the entry point to connect to and operate on the repositories. For each available Repository, a RepositorySession will be created and added to the returned array. A connection may also be attempted to a specific Repository in which case, the RepositorySession for that attempted connection will be added to the RepositorySession array and returned. The RepositoryManager may be cached (perhaps in the HttpSession). If this is the case, it is up to the client to keep RepositorySessions in sync with the user's connection and disconnections to Repositories.
