Query Language Elements

This section discusses various aspects and tools of the native client query engine.

• Method Invocation

  The query language supports method invocation inside query expressions.

• Supported Query Language Literals

  Query language expressions can contain literals as well as operators and attribute names. The client supports many types of literals.

• Type Conversions

  Java rules within a query string require the query processor to perform implicit conversions and promotions under certain cases in order to evaluate expressions that contain different types.
