It accepts a RoomSearch in addition to the query for the purpose of specifying additional options affecting the entire search, such as ordering. getRoomsBySearch() returns a RoomSearchResults that can be used to access the resulting RoomList or be used to perform a search within the result set through RoomSearch .

Rooms may have a query record indicated by their respective record types. The query record is accessed via the RoomQuery . The returns in this session may not be cast directly to these interfaces.
