/* repl5_schedule.c */
/*

The schedule object implements the scheduling policy for a DS 5.0 replication
supplier.

Methods:
schedule_set() - sets the schedule
schedule_get() - gets the schedule
schedule_in_window_now() - returns TRUE if a replication session
  should commence.
schedule_next() - returns the next time that replication is
  scheduled to occur.
schedule_notify() - called to inform the scheduler when entries
  have been updated.
schedule_set_priority_attributes() - sets the attributes that are
  considered "high priority". A modification to one of these attributes
  will cause replication to commence asap, overriding the startup
  delay and maximum backlog. Also includes an additional parameter
  that controls whether priority attributes are propagated regardless
  of the scheduling window, e.g. it's possible to configure things
  so that password changes get propagated even if we're not in a
  replication window.
schedule_set_startup_delay() - sets the time that replication should
  wait before commencing replication sessions.
schedule_set_maximum_backlog() - sets the maximum number of updates
  which can occur before replication will commence. If the backlog
  threshhold is exceeded, then replication will commence ASAP,
  overriding the startup delay.

*/

/* ONREPL - I made a simplifying assumption that a schedule item does not
   cross day boundaries. Implementing this is hard because we search
   for the items for a particular day only based on the item's staring time.
   For instance if the current time is tuesday morning, we would not consider
   the item that started on monday and continued through tuesday.
   To simulate an item that crosses day boundaries, you can create 2 items - 
   one for the time in the first day and one for the time in the second. 
   We could do this internally by allowing items do span 2 days and
   splitting them ourselves. This, however, is not currently implemented */
