      Function
    • parameters:
      • query: (typeof Object)
        An object hash with fields that may match fields of items in the store.
        Values in the hash will be compared by normal == operator, but regular expressions
        or any object that provides a test() method are also supported and can be
        used to match strings by more complex expressions
        (and then the regex's or object's test() method will be used to match values).
      • options: (typeof dojo.store.util.SimpleQueryEngine.__queryOptions)
        An object that contains optional information such as sort, start, and count.

       // description:
       //  The SimpleQueryEngine provides a way of getting a QueryResults through

       //  This function can be used as a template for more complex query engines;

       //  contains filtering functions, or a string that gets evaluated, etc.
