Method Detail

getName

@Deprecated
String getName()

Deprecated.

Returns:

the name of the index, i.e. the name this index was created with.

getEntityType

@Deprecated
Class<T> getEntityType()

Deprecated.

Returns:

the type of entities are managed by this index.

get

@Deprecated
IndexHits<T> get(String key,
                             Object value)

Deprecated.

Returns exact matches from this index, given the key/value pair. Matches will be for key/value pairs just as they were added by the Index.add(PropertyContainer, String, Object) method.

Parameters:

key - the key in the key/value pair to match.

value - the value in the key/value pair to match.

Returns:

the result wrapped in an IndexHits object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, IndexHits.close() must be called before disposing of the result.

query

@Deprecated
IndexHits<T> query(String key,
                               Object queryOrQueryObject)

Deprecated.

Returns matches from this index based on the supplied key and query object, which can be a query string or an implementation-specific query object.

Parameters:

key - the key in this query.

queryOrQueryObject - the query for the key to match.

Returns:

the result wrapped in an IndexHits object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, IndexHits.close() must be called before disposing of the result.

query

@Deprecated
IndexHits<T> query(Object queryOrQueryObject)

Deprecated.

Returns matches from this index based on the supplied query object, which can be a query string or an implementation-specific query object.

Parameters:

queryOrQueryObject - the query to match.

Returns:

the result wrapped in an IndexHits object. If the entire result set isn't looped through, IndexHits.close() must be called before disposing of the result.

isWriteable

@Deprecated
boolean isWriteable()

Deprecated.

A ReadableIndex is possible to support mutating operations as well. This method returns true iff such operations are supported by the implementation.

Returns:

true iff mutating operations are supported.

getGraphDatabase

@Deprecated
GraphDatabaseService getGraphDatabase()

Deprecated.

Get the graph database that owns this index.

Returns:

the graph database that owns this index.
