Query an object in Parse4J

Question

I would like to know if it is possible to get an object, filtering by an attribute of an attribute class.

To be more specific, if I have:

Person<br>
-BasicInformation basicInformation

BasicInformation<br>
-Integer identificationNumber

I want to retrieve all Person that has identificationNumber = 9000000

I should do something like this:

ParseQuery<Person> personQuery = ParseQuery.getQuery(Person.class);    
personQuery.whereEqualTo("basicInformation.identificationNumber", 9000000);

But it does not work. Any ideas?

You should be able to use relational queries. The main query would then query for all Person objects that match the result of your sub-query.

I quickly checked the docs of Parse4J and it does not seem to support this so you might need to either implement that yourself or call the REST-API directly.

Thanks, everybody. I have resolved it.

I had to do the followings steps.

ParseQuery basicInformationQuery = ParseQuery.getQuery(BasicInformation.class);

basicInformationQuery.whereEqualTo("identificationNumber", 9000000);

And then

ParseQuery personQuery = ParseQuery.getQuery(Person.class);
personQuery.whereMatchesQuery("basicInformation", basicInformationQuery);

personQuery.find();
