Class Query

java.lang.Object
  org.jboss.portal.search.query.Query

public class Query
extends java.lang.Object

The Query object is used to express a query. Common queries use mandatory terms, optional terms and missing terms. For instance you could do a query stating that you absolutely want the keyword 'Mustang' in your query, that the keyword 'car' is optional and could be used to show the results with the two keywords higher in the list and without the keyword 'horse'. In traditional search tools it would be represented as the string: "+mustang car -horse"
