Alexander Zarei updated DRILL-1537:
-----------------------------------
    Description: 
When submitting queries by the function *SubmitQuery(QueryType t, string& plan, 
pfnQueryResultsListener l, void\* lCtx)* of drillClientImp class, the 
listenerContext parameter provides a convenient way of associating returned 
results with submitted queries.

The way it works is that the calling application passes the context to 
*SubmitQuery* and when returning results, *processQueryResult* passes the 
context to the *queryResultListener* callback function. As such, the callback 
function can associate the returned result with the context.

When we were updating QuerySubmitter example to showcase usage of *SubmitQuery* 
with context, we noticed *processQueryResult* function does not pass the 
context directly to the *queryResultListener* callback function; Instead, an 
instance of DrillClientQueryResult which contains the context as a data member 
is passed to the *queryResultListener*. This requires the *queryResultListener* 
function, which is implemented in consumers of the C++ Client, to know about 
the *DrillClientQueryResult*.

However, DrillClientQueryResult is not in the public API of the C++ Client. Two 
solutions are imaginable at the first glance: First, passing the context 
instead of a DrillClientQueryResult, which we implemented and tested it; 
Second, moving DrillClientQueryResult to the public API; Moving 
DrillClientQueryResult to the public API does not seem to be desirable as it is 
internal detail for the C++ Client.

I was wondering what your thoughts are on this.

Thanks,
Alex
