      • toString

        @NonNull
public java.lang.String toString()
        Overrides:
        toString in class java.lang.Object

      • getParameters

        @Nullable
public Parameters getParameters()
        Returns a copies of the current parameters.
        Specified by:
        getParameters in interface Query

      • setParameters

        public void setParameters​(@Nullable
                          Parameters parameters)
        Set parameters should copy the given parameters. Set a new parameter will also re-execute the query if there is at least one listener listening for changes.
        Specified by:
        setParameters in interface Query

      • execute

        @NonNull
public ResultSet execute()
                  throws CouchbaseLiteException
        Executes the query. The returning a result set that enumerates result rows one at a time. You can run the query any number of times, and you can even have multiple ResultSet active at once.

        The results come from a snapshot of the database taken at the moment the run() method is called, so they will not reflect any changes made to the database afterwards.

        Specified by:
        execute in interface Query
        Returns:
        the ResultSet for the query result.
        Throws:
        CouchbaseLiteException - if there is an error when running the query.

      • explain

        @NonNull
public java.lang.String explain()
                         throws CouchbaseLiteException
        Returns a string describing the implementation of the compiled query. This is intended to be read by a developer for purposes of optimizing the query, especially to add database indexes. It's not machine-readable and its format may change. As currently implemented, the result is two or more lines separated by newline characters: * The first line is the SQLite SELECT statement. * The subsequent lines are the output of SQLite's "EXPLAIN QUERY PLAN" command applied to that statement; for help interpreting this, see https://www.sqlite.org/eqp.html . The most important thing to know is that if you see "SCAN TABLE", it means that SQLite is doing a slow linear scan of the documents instead of using an index.
        Specified by:
        explain in interface Query
        Returns:
        a string describing the implementation of the compiled query.
        Throws:
        CouchbaseLiteException - if an error occurs

public ListenerToken addChangeListener​(@NonNull
                                       QueryChangeListener listener)
