Return Value

Type: IListT
A list of data of the given type. If the type is a built-in type like int, string, etc. only the data from the first column is returned, otherwise an instance is created per row, and a case insensitive, direct mapping between column-name and member-name is assumed.

Examples
The following example shows how to execute a query with parameters:
Copy
using (IFulltextSession fulltextSession = fulltextStore.StartSession())
{
    ISphinxQLExecutor sphinxQLExecutor = fulltextSession.Advanced.CreateSphinxQLExecutor();

    var parameters = new { query = "a product", categories = new[] { 23, 42 } };

    var results = sphinxQLExecutor.Query<Product>("SELECT * FROM products WHERE MATCH(@query) AND categories IN @categories", parameters);        
}
The next example shows a query with a built-in type as a result type:
Copy
using (IFulltextSession fulltextSession = fulltextStore.StartSession())
{
    ISphinxQLExecutor sphinxQLExecutor = fulltextSession.Advanced.CreateSphinxQLExecutor();

    var parameters = new { descriptions = new[] {"a description", "another description"}, query = "a product" };

    var snippets = sphinxQLExecutor.Query<string>("CALL SNIPPETS(@descriptions, 'products', @query)", parameters);
}
You can also project your results into a dynamic object:
Copy
using (IFulltextSession fulltextSession = fulltextStore.StartSession())
{
    ISphinxQLExecutor sphinxQLExecutor = fulltextSession.Advanced.CreateSphinxQLExecutor();

    var parameters = new { query = "a product", categories = new[] { 23, 42 } };

    var results = sphinxQLExecutor.Query<dynamic>("SELECT * FROM products WHERE MATCH(@query) AND categories IN @categories", parameters);        
}
