ITraits (server-common-api)

```
public interface ITraits
```
Traits control the behavior of Commands.

When using IBizPolicy and ICommand, they are always invoked with an IContext object. The IContext object contains information about the user on whose behalf the command is invoked, as well as access, event, and workflow states. These states, which can be toggled on and off, are known as traits, and are encapsulated by the ITraits object. By default, all policy commands will check access, fire events, and initiate workflow as appropriate for the command.

By modifying the ITraits of an IContext object, you can control which states are available when executing various Commands and BizPolicies.

By default, all IContexts are initialized with all of the ITrait states enabled.
