All Superinterfaces:
XPathQueryBase
All Known Subinterfaces:
XPathQuery
public interface XPathBasicQuery extends XPathQueryBase
Provides an interface to basic XPath queries.

  • Method Details

    • setAmount

      XPathBasicQuery setAmount(int amount)
      Sets the maximum number of objects (=page size) to retrieve.
      Parameters:
      amount - the maximum number of objects
      Returns:
      the updated query instance

    • setOffset

      XPathBasicQuery setOffset(int offset)
      Sets the paging offset for object retrieval.
      Parameters:
      offset - the index of the first object to retrieve
      Returns:
      the updated query instance

    • addSort

      XPathBasicQuery addSort(String attribute, boolean ascending)
      Adds a sort direction. This affects the sort of the objects that are retrieved. When multiple sorts are added each subsequent sort objects that are equal according to the earlier values
      Parameters:
      attribute - the attribute on which should be sorted
      ascending - the direction of the sort. If this value is true it sorts from the smallest value to the largest. If it is false it sorts from the largest value to the smallest.
      Returns:
      the updated query instance

    • setDepth

      XPathBasicQuery setDepth(int depth)
      Sets the retrieval depth of this query. It determines until which level IMendixIdentifiers are resolved to IMendixObjects.
      Parameters:
      depth - the retrieval depth
      Returns:
      the updated query instance

    • setVariable

      XPathBasicQuery setVariable(String name, BigDecimal value)
      Sets a variable with a value of type BigDecimal
