# class NotificationStrategy

Library: Foundation
Package: Events
Header: Poco/NotificationStrategy.h

## Description

The interface that all notification strategies must implement.

Note: Event is based on policy-driven design, so every strategy implementation must provide all the methods from this interface (otherwise: compile errors) but does not need to inherit from NotificationStrategy.
