Just wondering if names queries will be the only way to manually query data to bring into components?
Tbh, I actually like the fact I have to setup a named query because it forces me to setup the structure rather than “it’s a one off” policy. But wondering if that will change?
Yes, named queries are the only query type available to the binding system in perspective. Like you said, they encourage better organization and structure. They also have better security settings, and they also present a better mechanism for us to optimize on.
As Carl already said, Named Queries are the only available way to Bind properties to database info, but you also have the ability execute SQL queries in scripts, should you ever decide that a “one-off” is indeed the best option for some outlier case.
