/**
 * <p><b>Purpose</b>: The query manager allows for the database operations that EclipseLink
 * performs to be customized by the application.  For each descriptor a query can be
 * given that controls how a operation will occur.  A common example is if the application
 * requires a stored procedure to be used to insert the object, it can override the SQL call
 * in the insert query that EclipseLink will use to insert the object.
 * Queries can be customized to extend EclipseLink behavior, access non-relational data or use stored
 * procedures or customized SQL calls.
 * <p>
 * The queries that can be customized include:
 * <ul>
 * <li> insertQuery - used to insert the object
 * <li> updateQuery - used to update the object
 * <li> readObjectQuery - used to read a single object by primary key
 * <li> readAllQuery - used to read all of the objects of the class
 * <li> doesExistQuery - used to determine whether an insert or update should occur
 * <li> deleteQuery - used to delete the object
 * </ul>
