public interface JRQueryExecuter

Query executer interface.

An implementation of this interface is created when the input data of a report/dataset is specified by a query.

The implementation will run the query and create a JRDataSource from the result.

The query executers would usually be initialized by a QueryExecuterFactory with the query and the parameter values.
