Interface Selection

All Known Implementing Classes:

SelectionCollector

public interface Selection

A selection provides access to a query graph with operations useful for service implementors, providing property names for a given Type but also operations which return the selected properties at a given (query) graph level, and for a given source edge Type. All properties are returned as a Set and implementations will typically return a HashSet.

1.1.4
