public class Query
extends Object

Represents a Query operation as a part of a GetFeature request. Each individual query packaged in a GetFeature request is defined using the query value. The query value defines which feature type to query, what properties to retrieve and what constraints (spatial and non-spatial) to apply to those properties.

The mandatory typeName attribute is used to indicate the name of one or more feature type instances or class instances to be queried. Its value is a list of namespace-qualified names (XML Schema type QName, e.g. myns:School) whose value must match one of the feature types advertised in the Capabilities document of the WFS. Specifying more than one typename indicates that a join operation is being performed. All the names in the typeName list must be valid types that belong to this query's feature content as defined by the GML Application Schema. Optionally, individual feature type names in the typeName list may be aliased using the format QName=Alias. The following is an example typeName value that indicates that a join operation is to be performed and includes aliases:
typeName="ns1:InwaterA_1m=A,ns1:InwaterA_1m=B,ns2:CoastL_1M=C"
This example encodes a join between three feature types aliased as A, B and C. The join between feature type A and B is a self-join.

public static Query create(Element element)
                    throws XMLParsingException

Creates a Query instance from a document that contains the DOM representation of the request, using the 1.1.0 filter encoding.

Note that the following attributes from the surrounding element are also considered (if it present):

• resultType
• maxFeatures
• startPosition

Parameters:

Returns:

corresponding Query instance

Throws:

XMLParsingException

create

public static Query create(Element element,
                           boolean useVersion_1_0_0)
                    throws XMLParsingException

Creates a Query instance from a document that contains the DOM representation of the request.

Note that the following attributes from the surrounding element are also considered (if it present):

• resultType
• maxFeatures
• startPosition

Parameters:

element -

useVersion_1_0_0 - if the filterencoding 1.0.0 rules should be applied.

Returns:

corresponding Query instance

Throws:

XMLParsingException

getHandle

public String getHandle()

Returns the handle attribute.

The handle attribute is included to allow a client to associate a mnemonic name to the query. The purpose of the handle attribute is to provide an error handling mechanism for locating a statement that might fail.

Returns:

the handle attribute

getTypeNames

public QualifiedName[] getTypeNames()

Returns the names of the requested feature types.

Returns:

the names of the requested feature types

getAliases

public String[] getAliases()

Returns the aliases for the requested feature types.

The returned array is either null or has the same length as the array returned by getTypeNames().

Returns:

the aliases for the requested feature types, or null if no aliases are used

See Also:

getTypeNames()

getSrsName

public String getSrsName()

Returns the srsName attribute.

Returns:

the srsName attribute

setSrsName

public void setSrsName(String srsName)

Sets the srsName attribute to given value.

Parameters:

srsName - name of the requested SRS

performBBoxTest

public void performBBoxTest()
                     throws InvalidParameterValueException

Throws:

InvalidParameterValueException

deleteBBoxTest

public void deleteBBoxTest()

Sets the test to null, thus enabling the gc.

getFeatureVersion

public String getFeatureVersion()

Returns the featureVersion attribute. The version attribute is included in order to accommodate systems that support feature versioning. A value of ALL indicates that all versions of a feature should be fetched. Otherwise an integer can be specified to return the n th version of a feature. The version numbers start at '1' which is the oldest version. If a version value larger than the largest version is specified then the latest version is return. The default action shall be for the query to return the latest version. Systems that do not support versioning can ignore the parameter and return the only version that they have.

Returns:

the featureVersion attribute

getPropertyNames

public PropertyPath[] getPropertyNames()

Returns all requested properties.

Returns:

all requested properties

See Also:

getFunctions()

getFunctions

public Function[] getFunctions()

Beside property names a query may contains 0 to n functions modifying the values of one or more original properties. E.g. instead of area and population the density of a country can be requested by using a function instead:

  <ogc:Div>
   <ogc:PropertyName>population</ogc:PropertyName>
   <ogc:PropertyName>area</ogc:PropertyName>
  </ogc:Div>
 

If no functions and no property names are specified all properties should be fetched.

Returns:

requested functions

See Also:

getPropertyNames()

getFilter

public Filter getFilter()

Returns the filter that limits the query.

Returns:

the filter that limits the query

getSortProperties

public SortProperty[] getSortProperties()

Returns the sort criteria for the result.

Returns:

the sort criteria for the result

getResultType

public GetFeature.RESULT_TYPE getResultType()

Returns the value of the resultType attribute ("inherited" from the GetFeature container).

Returns:

the value of the resultType attribute

getMaxFeatures

public int getMaxFeatures()

Returns the value of the maxFeatures attribute ("inherited" from the GetFeature container). The optional maxFeatures attribute can be used to limit the number of features that a GetFeature request retrieves. Once the maxFeatures limit is reached, the result set is truncated at that point. If not limit is set -1 will be returned

Returns:

the value of the maxFeatures attribute

setMaxFeatures

public void setMaxFeatures(int maxFeatures)

Parameters:

maxFeatures -

getStartPosition

public int getStartPosition()

Returns the value of the startPosition attribute ("inherited" from the GetFeature container).

The startPosition parameter identifies the first result set entry to be returned. If no startPosition is set explicitly, 1 will be returned.

Returns:

the value of the startPosition attribute, 1 if undefined

setStartPosition

public void setStartPosition(int startPosition)

Parameters:

startPosition -

See Also:

getStartPosition()

guessMissingTypeNameNamespace

public void guessMissingTypeNameNamespace(WFService wfs)

Adds missing namespaces in the names of requested feature types.

If the QualifiedName of a requested type has a null namespace, the first qualified feature type name of the given WFService with the same local name is used instead.

Note: The method changes this request part (the feature type names) and should only be called by the WFSHandler class.

Parameters:

wfs - WFService instance that is used for the lookup of proper (qualified) feature type names

guessAllMissingNamespaces

public void guessAllMissingNamespaces(WFService wfs)

Adds missing namespaces to requested feature type names, property names, filter properties and sort properties.

Note: The method changes the request and should only be called by the WFSHandler class.

Parameters:

wfs - WFService instance that is used for the lookup of proper (qualified) feature and property names

toString

public String toString()

Returns a string representation of the object.

Overrides:

toString in class Object

Returns:

a string representation of the object
