Usage of RDB-List method for querying Internal Class Instances
I was going through the Online Help System and under Working with PegaRULES Database, I came across the following:
"You can also use Connect SQL rules to search the database, but this is not recommended except in unusual situations."
I am trying to understand why usage of RDB-List is not recommended over Obj-Browse for filtering out Internal Class Instances. Is it only because Obj-Browse will generate a well-structured query internally or is there some other technical reason? Also can you cite one 'unusual situation' where Obj-Browse method is not usable but RDB-List is? A simple comparison over RDB-List and Obj-Browse methods is appreciated.
Thanks in advance.

You should be able to filter out class instances by using report definitions, so I'd stick with using report definitions. (I'm not sure of the use cases for Connect SQL rules.)
