Properties
  NameDescription
Public propertyAlias
Gets or sets the alias.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)
Public propertyCustomFunctionMappingStore
Gets or sets the optional custom function mapping store. A custom function mapping store takes precedence over the function mapping store obtained from the Dynamic Query Engine (DQE) used for producing the SQL for the query. If a custom function mapping store is needed for a query, set this property only on the query object passed to the execution method. No need to set it on inner query objects.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)
Protected propertyIsPrepared
Gets a value indicating whether this instance is prepared.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)
Protected propertyNestedQueries
Gets the nested queries.
(Overrides QuerySpecNestedQueries.)
Public propertyOnPrepareForExecutionCallBack
Gets or sets the call back lambda which is called after this query has been prepared for execution. Use this method to tap into the execution chain to do last-minute query object manipulation / inspection prior to the actual fetch action.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)
Protected propertyRawFromClause
Gets the last clause on the from clause set list or null if nothing is there. Used with unwrapping tvf calls.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)
Protected propertyResultsetElementType
Gets the type of the resultset element.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)
Protected propertyTargetAlias
Gets the target alias.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)
Protected propertyUseAliasForOuterAliasOnly
Gets or sets a value indicating whether the 'Alias' value should be used only for the query's alias (true) or for target aliasing as well if there's no target alias set (false, default). Set to true when the query is converted to a derived table.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)

Methods
  NameDescription
Protected methodAddAsRelation
Prepares the implementor by converting it to a relation object and adds it to the passed in relationcollection.
(Inherited from QuerySpec.)
Protected methodAddFieldToProjectionIfNotPresent
