Abstract

Defines the base query type used by default by any dashboard.

While loading this class's module, the static function setBaseQuery is executed in order to make this class the default base query class for any dashboard.

Additional query types might extend from this class, if no valid constructor is provided during the new query type registration.

Please use the dashboard function getQuery to create new queries.
