This interface is deprecated.
Starting with version 9.0 and the advent of Distribution Services, all schedule objects are replaced by subscriptions. There is no equivalent collection class for subscription objects.

Class Overview

This class holds a collection of WebSchedule Objects. It provides methods to add new schedules to this collection, view, sort and delete them. Note that any changes to the collection are done in memory. You can persist them to the server by explicitly calling save or delete.
