Hi Steve/Tamas

 

Until now I was under the impression that I can't do a query by
attributes and shape in a single call.  Hence I had written my code
first to execute query by shape and append those results to query
expression as IN clause and invoke queryByAttributes.

 

While doing some testing on oracle spatial layer, I found that
queryByShape is actually honoring filter expression on the layer. Since
this will be executed as a single call, I want to modify my code to call
only queryByShape and set the query expression to filter.  This will
improve overall time taken for the query execution but I want to make
sure that his behavior is consistent across all data sets (providers).

 

Thanks

Murty

The one notable exception is the queryByAttribute method. It definitely
ignores the existing filter.

Murty,

It's up to the driver how the filter is actually used, but the query
methods should normally use the specified filter setting to limit the
shapes retrieved from the data source.

Best regards,

Tamas

Hi

 

I want to know if a layer's filter (set using layerObj.setFilter method)
is used while executing any of the query methods on a layer like
queryByShape, queryByAttributes, queryByRect etc.

 

Thanks

Murty
