@Deprecated public interface IMatchQuery<T> extends IQuery<T>
Deprecated.If possible, use one of the predefined queries inQueryUtil
or use theQueryUtil.createMatchQuery(String, Object...)
to create a custom expression based query. If the query cannot be expressed using the p2QL, then use a predefined or custom expression query as a first filter (in worst case, useQueryUtil.createIUAnyQuery()
) and then provide further filtering like so:for(iter = queryable.query(someExpressionQuery).iterator(); iter.hasNext();) { // do your match here }
A query in which the elements can be evaluated by calling isMatch on. Each element can be evaluated independently of all other elements. Match queries can be evaluated in parallel as each callisMatch(Object)
is mutually exclusive from all other calls.- Since:
- 2.0
- Restriction:
- This interface is not intended to be implemented by clients. Clients
creating custom queries must extend
ExpressionMatchQuery
.
