Property Value

Implements

The QueryDate is used to retrieve the version of objects from the AFDatabase. The version of the object used to do the retrieval is the one in effect at the QueryDate. The returned sub-collection of the object are the ones in effect for this date.

The value of this property can be set using the ApplyQueryDate(Object) method. This property defaults to current time. However, once it is set, any object retrieved from one of its sub-collections will have their QueryDate set to this object's QueryDate.

This date is a short cut for obtaining the desired versions of the subordinate objects. Set it to a time that makes sense for your application. For example, when getting the equipment for a AFElement, set it to the end time of the desired time period. Then the versions of the subordinate objects retrieved will have their effective dates at or before the end time of the element.
