Predefined Schedules and Connection Settings

To simplify development, Session Scheduler provides an ability to define session schedules and connecting settings in configuration files for later referencing in the source code.

To load these descriptions from the XML file, use the SessionScheduler(string, LogFactory) constructor. Later the descriptions could be referenced in the source code using their string identifiers.

For example:

var scheduler = new SessionScheduler("Schedule.xml");

scheduler.Add(session, "SimpleDaily", "LocalSession");
