- (NSOperation *) executeFeatureCountWithQuery:

(AGSQuery *)

query

Executes a query against the service layer pointed by the url. The query returns only a feature count of records matching the specified criteria.

The delegate will be notified when the operation completes or if an error is encountered.

Parameters:

query

Specifies the criteria for the query.

Returns:

NSOperation for current execute request.

Since:

1.0

Availability:

This feature is only available with services from ArcGIS Server 10 or above

- (NSOperation *) executeForIdsWithQuery:

(AGSQuery *)

query

Executes a query against the service layer pointed by the url. The query returns only IDs of records matching the specified criteria. This is useful if you want to implement paging for results or if you want to only fetch result details on demand. Unlike executeWithQuery: , there is no limit on the number of results returned by this query.

The delegate will be notified when the operation completes or if an error is encountered.

Parameters:

query

Specifies the criteria for the query.

Returns:

NSOperation for current execute request.

Since:

1.0

Availability:

This feature is only available with services from ArcGIS Server 10 or above

- (NSOperation *) executeWithQuery:

(AGSQuery *)

query

Executes a query against the service layer pointed by the url. The query returns records matching the specified criteria. The records could be features, if the service layer represents a layer. Or the records could be simple records (without geometry) if the service layer represents a table. The delegate will be notified when the operation completes or if an error is encountered.

The number of results returned by the query is limited by the service's configuration.

Parameters:

query

Specifies the criteria for the query.

Returns:

NSOperation for current execute request.

Since:

1.0

- (NSOperation *) executeWithRelationshipQuery:

(AGSRelationshipQuery *)

query

Executes a query against the service layer pointed by the url. The query returns records that are related to the given set of features. The related records could be features, if the service layer is related to a layer. Or the related records could be simple records (wihtout geometry) if the service layer is related to a table.

The delegate will be notified when the operation completes or if an error is encountered.

Parameters:

query

Specifies the criteria for the query.

Returns:

NSOperation for current execute request.
