Interface ReadQuery<T,C>

Type Parameters:

T - Type of the TransportObject object

C - Type of the context of the query. This varies with the implementation of the application and the database used.

All Known Implementing Classes:

CountQuery, FindQuery, GetQuery, PagedFindQuery, ReadQueryDecorator, ReadQueryLoggingDecorator, TransReadAllDecorator, TransReadQueryDecorator

public interface ReadQuery<T,C>

ReadQuery provides ability for the business logic to perform Read operations on the persistence layer. The applications use DAO to perform all database operations and the WriteQuery interface provides methods that DAO can use to infer the type of query, the filter conditions, the sort specifications and take the user query to the lower tiers.

WriteQuery.execute(C) is a single call that the application/business logic makes to perform a read operation. The implemented execute method takes the Context as parameter. The Context varies with implementation and DAO uses this context to pass data down to the entity manager.
