Method Detail

getCriteria

Criteria getCriteria()
Get the search criteria

Returns:
the search criteria

requestsKeys

boolean requestsKeys()
Are keys requested?

Returns:
true if keys requested

requestsValues

boolean requestsValues()
Are values requested?

Returns:
true if values requested

getCache

Cache getCache()
Get the cache this query originated from

Returns:
cache

getTargets

@Deprecated
String[] getTargets()
Deprecated. 

This needs to be cleaned up. We don't want to introduce any kind of ordering here, as there simply is none.

Meanwhile, this is used to keep the ordering on BMQL created Queries. Yet, QueryManagerBuilder, which creates the QueryManager, doesn't let us qualify the Query type further to add this "ordering" concept of "targets" to it.
And this "ordering" shouldn't become part of the QueryManager API neither as each implementation might require something different.

Returns:
select target names, searchAttribute or aggregator
See Also:
API-43

targets

@Deprecated
void targets(String[] targets)
Deprecated. 

Set the names of the select targets. These will either be searchAttribute names or aggregator display names, eg. 'ave(salary)' This is used by BMQL to form the return results.

List<StoreQuery.Ordering> getOrdering()
Get the requested search orderings

Returns:

Returns:
the include aggregators (if any)

ExecutionHints getExecutionHints()
Get execution hints for this query
