/**
 * Represents a query used for generation of report data.
 * 

 * Based on the query language, query executer implementations are used to retrieve the data and
 * create a {@link net.sf.jasperreports.engine.JRDataSource JRDataSource} to be used by the filling process.
 * 

 * When using the default SQL connection data source,
 * an SQL query must also be provided for JasperReports to automatically retrieve the data.
 * For SQL queries, a very important aspect is that column names in the result set obtained from the query must match the field names
 * defined in the report template.
