Hello,

I’m trying to limit the number of results returned by _aerospike\_query\_foreach_. My sample code is very similar to the examples shipped with the c client library for ubuntu.

> ```
> as_query *query;
> query = malloc(sizeof(as_query));
> as_query_init(query, g_namespace, g_set);
> 
> as_query_select_init(query, 2);
> as_query_select(query, "stamp");
> as_query_select(query, "originalId");
> 
> ```

> ```
> as_query_limit(query, 100);
> as_query_where_init(query, 1);
> as_query_where(query, "stamp", integer_range(1, 9999999999));
> 
> ```

The as\_query\_limit() function is documented here: [C Client API: Query Operations](http://www.aerospike.com/apidocs/c/de/d96/group __query__ operations.html#gaa24ff1ca902418ca7387e7eab9da396b)

and in aerospike\_query.h

The version of aerospike c-client library i’m using is: 3.0.87 on Ubuntu, specifically, _aerospike-client-c-3.0.87.ubuntu12.04.x86\_64_

When I compile my program, I get this error: /root/aerospike-units/query/query-performance.c:80: undefined reference to `as\_query\_limit’

Inspecting libaerospike.a and libaerospike.so for symbols reveal no results:

> ```
> $ nm /usr/lib/libaerospike.a /usr/lib/libaerospike.so | grep -i as_query_limit
> $
> $ nm /usr/lib/libaerospike.a /usr/lib/libaerospike.so | grep -i query_limit
> 0000000000001fa2 T cl_query_limit
> 000000000001afd2 T cl_query_limit
> 
> ```

Iis this a bug or on purpose?

Best Regards, Leonidas Tsampros

The documentation is erroneous. Currently as\_query\_limit() is not implemented. Documentation will be updated. Thanks.

Are there any plans for this to get implemented?

Yes. Had some discussion internally. We plan to have this work prioritized. Will report when we have a more predictable “when”.

@dlhero,

A JIRA has been filed to follow up on this; it’s AER-3141, just for reference. Please stay tuned for updates on our progress (but we still can’t give an answer re: when the work will be done).

Cheers,

Maud
