Method Detail

results

List<V> results()

Gets all business objects that matches the given query.

WARNING: This methods loads the whole resulting data set into memory.
This can cause out of memory exceptions and bad performance of the whole engine.
Only use this method if you are sure that the resulting data set is small. Prefer using results(int, int), resultsPaged()

This method considers the following parts of the query:

• The where clauses (used to filter the business objects)
• The orderBy clauses (used to sort the resulting list)

This method ignores the following parts of the query:

• The groupBy clauses
• The aggregation (count, avg, min, max, sum) clauses

Returns:

list of matching business objects

See Also:

results(int, int), resultsPaged(), resultsPaged(int)

API:

This public API is available in IvyScript and Java. It has the visibility EXPERT.

results

List<V> results(int startIndex,
                int count)

Gets all business objects that matches the given query.

This method considers the following parts of the query:

• The where clauses (used to filter the business objects)
• The orderBy clauses (used to sort the resulting list)

This method ignores the following parts of the query:

• The groupBy clauses
• The aggregation (count, avg, min, max, sum) clauses

The parameters startIndex and count can be used to limit the number of objects that are returned.

Parameters:

startIndex - 0..n. The index of the first record is 0.

count - 0..n. Use -1 to return all beginning from the startIndex

Returns:

list of matching business objects

resultsPaged

IPagedResult<V> resultsPaged()

Gets the results page wise.

You can use this method in a for each loop to iterate over the results:

 for (V businessObject : query.executor().resultsPaged())
 {
   System.out.println(businessObject);
 }   * 
 

You can use it to display the results in paged table on the UI:

 public class MyLazyDataModel extends LazyDataModel<Car> {
  @ Override
  public List<Car> load(int first, int pageSize, Map<String, SortMeta> sortMeta, Map<String, FilterMeta> filterMeta) {
       return query.executor().resultsPaged().window(first, pageSize);
  }
 }
 

This method considers the following parts of the query:

• The where clauses (used to filter the business objects)
• The orderBy clauses (used to sort the resulting list)

This method ignores the following parts of the query:

• The groupBy clauses
• The aggregation (count, avg, min, max, sum) clauses

You can use this method to iterate over the results by reading and loading only part of them into memory at once. This allows you to iterate over huge data sets without loading all data into memory.

This method uses a default, system defined page size (1000) which does not harm memory and provides still good performance.

Returns:

paged result

8.0.3

resultsPaged

IPagedResult<V> resultsPaged(int pageSize)

Gets the results page wise.

You can use this method in a for each loop to iterate over the results:

 for (V businessObject : query.executor().resultsPaged(100))
 {
   System.out.println(businessObject);
 }   * 
 

You can use it to display the results in paged table on the UI:

 public class MyLazyDataModel extends LazyDataModel<Car> {
  @ Override
  public List<Car> load(int first, int pageSize, Map<String, SortMeta> sortMeta, Map<String, FilterMeta> filterMeta) {
       return query.executor().resultsPaged(pageSize).window(first, pageSize);
  }
 }
 

This method considers the following parts of the query:

• The where clauses (used to filter the business objects)
• The orderBy clauses (used to sort the resulting list)

This method ignores the following parts of the query:

• The groupBy clauses
• The aggregation (count, avg, min, max, sum) clauses

You can use this method to iterate over the results by reading and loading only part of them into memory at once. This allows you to iterate over huge data sets without loading all data into memory.

Parameters:

pageSize - the maximum number of results loaded at once into memory. On paged UI tables the number of objects you display on a single page.

Returns:

paged result

8.0.3

firstResult

V firstResult()

• The orderBy clauses (used to sort the resulting list)

This method ignores the following parts of the query:

• The groupBy clauses
• The aggregation (count, avg, min, max, sum) clauses

Returns:

first business object or null if no business object matches the query

recordset

Recordset recordset()

Gets a Recordset with all records that matches the given query. The returned columns depend on the given query:

• If no group by or aggregation is used, all columns of the table are returned.
• If a group by or aggregation is used, the columns that are specified in groupBy or aggregation (count, avg, min, max, sum) are returned.

Returns:

Recordset
