"""The Query class and support.

Defines the :class:`~sqlalchemy.orm.query.Query` class, the central construct used by
the ORM to construct database queries.

The ``Query`` class should not be confused with the
:class:`~sqlalchemy.sql.expression.Select` class, which defines database SELECT
operations at the SQL (non-ORM) level.  ``Query`` differs from ``Select`` in
that it returns ORM-mapped objects and interacts with an ORM session, whereas
the ``Select`` construct interacts directly with the database to return
iterable result sets.

        LIMIT, OFFSET, or DISTINCT, count() will wrap the statement

        and will wrap everything in a subquery.  Therefore,

            the session which were in fact deleted which can lead to confusing
            results if they are accessed via get() or already loaded
            collections.

            'fetch' - performs a select query before the delete to find
            objects that are matched by the delete query and need to be
            removed from the session. Matched objects are removed from the
            session.

            the objects in the session. If evaluation of the criteria isn't
            implemented, an error is raised.  In that case you probably 
            want to use the 'fetch' strategy as a fallback.
          
            The expression evaluator currently doesn't account for differing
            string collations between the database and Python.

        Returns the number of rows deleted, excluding any cascades.

        The method does *not* offer in-Python cascading of relationships - it is
        assumed that ON DELETE CASCADE is configured for any foreign key
        references which require it. The Session needs to be expired (occurs
        automatically after commit(), or call expire_all()) in order for the
        state of dependent objects subject to delete or delete-orphan cascade
        to be correctly represented.

        Also, the ``before_delete()`` and ``after_delete()``
        :class:`~sqlalchemy.orm.interfaces.MapperExtension` methods are not

            False - don't synchronize the session. This option is the most

            typically occurs after a commit(), or explicitly using
            expire_all(). Before the expiration, updated objects may still
            remain in the session with stale values on their attributes, which
            can lead to confusing results.
              
            'fetch' - performs a select query before the update to find
            objects that are matched by the update query. The updated
            attributes are expired on matched objects.

            'evaluate' - Evaluate the Query's criteria in Python straight on
            the objects in the session. If evaluation of the criteria isn't
            implemented, an exception is raised.

            The expression evaluator currently doesn't account for differing
            string collations between the database and Python.

        Returns the number of rows matched by the update.

        The method does *not* offer in-Python cascading of relationships - it is assumed that
        ON UPDATE CASCADE is configured for any foreign key references which require it.

        The Session needs to be expired (occurs automatically after commit(), or call expire_all())
        in order for the state of dependent objects subject foreign key cascade to be
        correctly represented.

        Also, the ``before_update()`` and ``after_update()`` :class:`~sqlalchemy.orm.interfaces.MapperExtension`
        methods are not called from this method.  For an update hook here, use the
