All Implemented Interfaces:

QueryBuilder

public class QueryBuilderImpl
extends Object
implements QueryBuilder

A starting point for creating queries.

A QueryBuiler is constructed with a GraknTx. All operations are performed using this transaction. The user must explicitly commit or rollback changes after executing queries.

QueryBuilderImpl also provides static methods for creating Vars.
