We now want to ask the server for all Employees working for Angus. We
first clear the window of the Editor field by clicking
the Clear menu item. After defining a new query object
(AngusEmployees) (see Figure 
) we select the Ask menu item.
The query object is then communicated to the ConceptBase Server, where it will be stored temporarily and evaluated. AngusEmployees will not persist in the Knowledge Base - if you'd like to store the QueryClass, you'd have to Tell it explicitly.
The answer is displayed in the Telos Editor field as well as the Protocol field of the ConceptBaseWorkbench .
Figure shows the
ConceptBaseWorkbench containing the query class and the answer.
