public interface HoldSearchSession extends HoldQuerySession

This session provides methods for searching among Hold objects. The search query is constructed using the HoldQuery .

getHoldsByQuery() is the basic search method and returns a list of Holds . A more advanced search may be performed with getHoldsBySearch() . It accepts a HoldSearch in addition to the query for the purpose of specifying additional options affecting the entire search, such as ordering. getHoldsBySearch() returns a HoldSearchResults that can be used to access the resulting HoldList or be used to perform a search within the result set through HoldSearch .

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors for searching.

  • federated oubliette view: searches include holds in oubliettes of which this oubliette is an ancestor in the oubliette hierarchy
  • isolated oubliette view: searches are restricted to holds in this oubliette

Holds may have a query record indicated by their respective record types. The query record is accessed via the HoldQuery .
