Function notmuch_sys::notmuch_query_create

pub unsafe extern "C" fn notmuch_query_create(
    database: *mut notmuch_database_t, 
    query_string: *const c_char
) -> *mut notmuch_query_t

Create a new query for 'database'.

Here, 'database' should be an open database, (see notmuch_database_open and notmuch_database_create).

For the query string, we'll document the syntax here more completely in the future, but it's likely to be a specialized version of the general Xapian query syntax:

https://xapian.org/docs/queryparser.html

As a special case, passing either a length-zero string, (that is ""), or a string consisting of a single asterisk (that is "*"), will result in a query that returns all messages in the database.

See notmuch_query_set_sort for controlling the order of results. See notmuch_query_search_messages and notmuch_query_search_threads to actually execute the query.

User should call notmuch_query_destroy when finished with this query.

Will return NULL if insufficient memory is available.
