Explanation

CodeQL databases contain queryable data extracted from a codebase, for a single language at a particular point in time. The database contains a full, hierarchical representation of the code, including a representation of the abstract syntax tree, the data flow graph, and the control flow Each language has its own unique database schema that defines the relations used to create a database. The schema provides an interface between the initial lexical analysis during the extraction process, and the actual complex analysis using CodeQL. The schema specifies, for instance, that there is a table for every language construct. For each language, the CodeQL libraries define classes to provide a layer of abstraction over the database tables. This provides an object-oriented view of the data which makes it easier to write
