/**
 * An interface providing methods to open sessions and register listeners. The
 * implementation of {@code DmtAdmin} should register itself in the OSGi service
 * registry as a service. {@code DmtAdmin} is the entry point for applications
 * to use the DMT API.
 * 

* The {@code getSession} methods are used to open a session on a specified * subtree of the DMT. A typical way of usage: * *

 * serviceRef = context.getServiceReference(DmtAdmin.class.getName());
 * DmtAdmin admin = (DmtAdmin) context.getService(serviceRef);
 * DmtSession session = admin.getSession("./OSGi/Configuration");
 * session.createInteriorNode("./OSGi/Configuration/my.table");
 * 
*

* The methods for opening a session take a node URI (the session root) as a * parameter. All segments of the given URI must be within the segment length * limit of the implementation, and the special characters '/' and '\' must be * escaped (preceded by a '\'). *

* See the {@link Uri#encode(String)} method for support on escaping invalid * characters in a URI. *

* It is possible to specify a lock mode when opening the session (see lock type * constants in {@link DmtSession}). This determines whether the session can run * in parallel with other sessions, and the kinds of operations that can be * performed in the session. All Management Objects constituting the device * management tree must support read operations on their nodes, while support * for write operations depends on the Management Object. Management Objects * supporting write access may support transactional write, non-transactional * write or both. Users of {@code DmtAdmin} should consult the Management Object * specification and implementation for the supported update modes. If * Management Object definition permits, implementations are encouraged to * support both update modes. * * @author $Id: 193fb8ed85cf47cdc98b31f0fb1fb11d3bad57eb $ */ public interface DmtAdmin { /** * Opens a {@code DmtSession} for local usage on a given subtree of the DMT * with non transactional write lock.
