public interface ObstacleSearchSession extends ObstacleQuerySession

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

getObstaclesByQuery() is the basic search method and returns a list of Obstacles . A more advanced search may be performed with getObstaclesBySearch() .It accepts an ObstacleSearch in addition to the query for the purpose of specifying additional options affecting the entire search, such as ordering. getObstaclesBySearch() returns an ObstacleSearchResults that can be used to access the resulting ObstacleList or be used to perform a search within the result set through ObstacleSearch .

This session defines views that offer differing behaviors for searching.

  • federated map view: searches include obstacle in maps of which this map is an ancestor in the map hierarchy
  • isolated map view: searches are restricted to obstacle in this map

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