It always works on the AnnotationSet level. It will find all annotation sets that contains an annotation of the given type with the given value. This also gives us the items since AnnotationSet:s are one-to-one related with the items. >> ItemQuery<net.sf.basedb.core.Annotation> annoQuery = >> Annotation.getQuery(); The Annotation.getQuery() is not a public method since it doesn't support the BASE security model. Ie. it doesn't care about the logged in user's permissions and may return items to which the user doesn't have access to. This method is only used internally by BASE when the permissions can be applied by other means. In all practical cases this means that we are restricted to query the annotations on a single item. /Nicklas ------------------------------------------------------------------------- This SF.net email is sponsored by: Splunk Inc.
