Interface QueryCreationContext

All Known Implementing Classes:
QueryCreationContextImpl
@PublicApi public interface QueryCreationContext
A parameter object that encapsulates the context required when creating queries in the JQL way.

The user specified by getUser() represents the user that is performing the search, and thus the user to use when performing security checks in query factories, JQL functions and resolving fields/handlers from clause names.

These security checks will be ignored when the isSecurityOverriden() is set to true. This is necessary when creating queries in the context of administration searches, where you need to ensure that all the results in the system are returned, regardless of who is performing the search.

The determined projects specified by getDeterminedProjects() represent the projects which were impliedfa
