STRUCTURED QUERY
Overview:
The main purpose of Structured Query is to parse an input string that adheres
to Advanced Query Syntax (AQS) or Natural Query Syntax (NQS) and produce a
parse tree (known as a condition tree) from which a database or index can conveniently
be queried. (Note that NQS includes AQS as a subset, and AQS incorporates plain keyword
search as a special case.) AQS and NQS allow expressing basic queries over properties,
such as whether the value of a string property contains a certain word or whether
the value of a numeric property is greater than some constant value, optionally
connected by AND, OR and NOT.
The minimum preparation for parsing queries is to create an IQueryParser,
and give it a schema binary and an LCID. The result is an IQuerySolution object,
which encompasses all available information about the query: the query string,
how it was tokenized, and a condition tree in the form of an ICondition.
The schema binary contains a representation of the application schema (basically
what properties there are to query over and some information about them such as
types) and a mapping from words and phrases to these properties. One can use a
trivial schema, which enables the AND, OR and NOT of primitive queries, but the
primitive queries can then not be over any specific properties.
An IQueryParser holds a very small state between queries, basically a loaded schema
which typically requires 100-150KB of memory. However, it also holds a reference to
some word breaker object, which may have a substantially larger state.
Query times are typically under 1ms.
Expected scenarios:
1. Wordwheeling -- The application invokes IQueryParser::Parse for each character
typed and uses the resulting ICondition to create a query which
is run to update a set of results to reflect the current input
string. Typically, the application would turn on the "automatic
wildcard" option so that (partial) words typed will match contents
that begin with these words.
2. Type query, press enter --
As above but the user has to actively state when to actually
processa query (such as hitting Enter or clicking a button).
An application may still choose to use "automatic wildcard" but
the benefits are less clear.
3. "Query builder" --
a. Input string -> query tree
Pass a query string from the user to IQueryParser::Parse and use
the resulting condition tree to render a graphical representation
of the query. If this graphical representation is not editable,
it serves simply as an explanation to the user how the input string
was interpreted. If is it editable, one may think of the input
string as a way or priming the query builder.
b. Just a query tree
ICondition is useful on its own even if not parsed from AQS or
NQS strings. An IConditionFactory object can be created to build
condition trees (and every IQuerySolution is also an
IConditionFactory).
c. Semantic canvas (two way editing)
This is like alternative a above but not only is the graphical
representation editable, whenever it is edited, the query string
is updated to reflect the new query. Thus, whenever the query string
or the graphical query is edited, the other is updated.
API conventions:
Any method will return E_INVALIDARG if some input argument is NULL, unless explicitly
permitted.
Any method will return E_POINTER if some output or input/output argument is NULL,
unless explicitly permitted.
For any output argument that inherits from IUnknown, the caller must eventually free it
using IUnknown::Release.
For any output argument of type LPWSTR, the caller must eventually free it using
CoTaskMemFree.
For any output argument of type PROPVARIANT, it is expected to be uninitialized before the call
and after a successful return, the caller must eventually clear it using PropVariantClear.

// the query parser by invoking IQueryParser::SetMultiOption with the name of the type and
// the IConditionGenerator. The query parser has preloaded condition generators for the base
// schema types Boolean, Integer, FloatingPoint, DateTime and FilePath.
// Consider an IConditionGenerator G for some semantic type T.
// The query parser will call the Initialize method of G as soon as possible (if a schema has
// been loaded) and again any time a new schema has been loaded (so the named entity
// recognizer should reset any sort of state each time Initialize is called).
// The query parser will call the RecognizeNamedEntities method of G for each query and expects that
// any recognized named entities for type T are added to a named entity collection.
// The query parser will call the GenerateForLeaf method of G any time it is about to generate a leaf
// condition with a value of semantic type T.
