[SMW-devel] Query result rewrite

[Jeroen De D. <jer...@gm...>]

Hey,

While working on my dev workshop for SMWCon, I noticed it is currently
rather impossible to write a sane unit test for a result format. The
reasons for this are that the result object, SMWQueryResult and the objects
it is composed of, contain a ton of stuff not relevant to those tests,
including database access to get the actual results.

I figured it'd be good to have a cleaner interface that can be used by new
code, and demonstrated in the workshop. So I'm now working on creating a
fresh implementation of the result objects, that will be available as an
alternative to the current way of doing things to result printer authors.
In other words, this will not be a compatibility breaking change, the
current approach will remain usable for the foreseeable future.

This is just a heads up I'm going to work on this, no real work has
happened yet. I'll be linking the code here as soon as there is something
substantial to look at.

Cheers
