Michael Dürig updated OAK-28:
-----------------------------

    Component/s: jcr
    Description: 
A query engine needs to be implemented. 

A query parser in oak-core should be able to handle xpath, sql2 and optionally 
other query languages. The jcr component must generate a valid query in one of 
those languages from JQOM queries and pass that statement along with name space 
mappings to the oak-core. 

We need to:
* Define the oak-core API for handling queries. How are do we handle name space 
mappings, limit and size
* Implement a query builder in the jcr component which takes care of 
translating JQOM queries 
* Implement a query parser in oak-core and decide on a versatile AST 
representation which works with all query languages and which is extensible to 
future query languages.
* Implement the actual query execution engine which interprets the query AST




  was:
A query engine needs to be implemented. 

This includes a query parser in oak-core (where we don't want to use the JCR 
API), and a query parser in oak-jcr (where the parsed query tree needs to 
implement the JCR API).

To avoid writing two independent parsers, I suggest to change the parser to 
emit a non-JCR query tree (so the parser can be used in oak-core). There needs 
to be a converter from the non-JCR query tree to a JCR query tree, so the same 
parser can be used in oak-jcr.

This will still require two independent query tree implementations (about 37 
duplicated classes: 37 classes for oak-core and 37 classes in oak-jcr). Plus it 
requires a tree converter.

If somebody has a better idea please tell me :-)

Prototype implementation of the query tree converter. Please note the class 
names are only to for illustration, but I don't know yet a good naming 
convention. Ideas are welcome!
