36 /**
37  * Strategy for querying a temporal object.
38  * <p>
39  * Queries are a key tool for extracting information from temporal objects.
40  * They exist to externalize the process of querying, permitting different
41  * approaches, as per the strategy design pattern.
42  * Examples might be a query that checks if the date is the day before February 29th
43  * in a leap year, or calculates the number of days to your next birthday.
44  * <p>
45  * The {@link TemporalField} interface provides another mechanism for querying
46  * temporal objects. That interface is limited to returning a {@code long}.
47  * By contrast, queries can return any type.
48  * <p>
49  * There are two equivalent ways of using a {@code TemporalQuery}.
50  * The first is to invoke the method on this interface directly.
51  * The second is to use {@link TemporalAccessor#query(TemporalQuery)}:
52  * <pre>
53  *   // these two lines are equivalent, but the second approach is recommended
54  *   temporal = thisQuery.queryFrom(temporal);
55  *   temporal = temporal.query(thisQuery);
56  * </pre>
57  * It is recommended to use the second approach, {@code query(TemporalQuery)},
58  * as it is a lot clearer to read in code.
59  * <p>
60  * The most common implementations are method references, such as
61  * {@code LocalDate::from} and {@code ZoneId::from}.
62  * Further implementations are on {@link TemporalQueries}.
63  * Queries may also be defined by applications.
64  *
65  * <h3>Specification for implementors</h3>
66  * This interface places no restrictions on the mutability of implementations,
67  * however immutability is strongly recommended.

91      * The implementation must take the input object and query it.
92      * The implementation defines the logic of the query and is responsible for
93      * documenting that logic.
94      * It may use any method on {@code TemporalAccessor} to determine the result.
95      * The input object must not be altered.
96      * <p>
97      * The input temporal object may be in a calendar system other than ISO.
98      * Implementations may choose to document compatibility with other calendar systems,
99      * or reject non-ISO temporal objects by {@link TemporalQueries#chronology() querying the chronology}.
100      * <p>
101      * This method may be called from multiple threads in parallel.
102      * It must be thread-safe when invoked.
103      *
104      * @param temporal  the temporal object to query, not null
105      * @return the queried value, may return null to indicate not found
106      * @throws DateTimeException if unable to query
107      * @throws ArithmeticException if numeric overflow occurs
