Why doesn't queryRaw method in GreenDao return a lazy list?

Question

queryRaw returns a normal list! But, this isn't good for many records and I need lazy list.

So, How can get a lazy list from queryRaw?

Answer 1

I just added a new method called queryRawCreate, which returns a Query object. Using the query, you can obtain a LazyList now. It's pushed to GitHub. You will need to use the source version until the next release.

Answer 2

Depending on your specific needs, it might work out using a standard QueryBuilder. Check out WhereCondition.StringCondition. Using this you can pass any SQL fragments for the WHERE clause to the query builder.
