 \subsubsection{ServerConnection}\label{s:ServerConnection}
+The \verb'glite::lb::ServerConnection' class represents particular \LB
+server and allows for queries not specific to particular job (these
+are separated into \verb'glite::lb:Job' class). The
+\verb'ServerConnection' instance thus encapsulates client part of
+\verb'edg_wll_Context' and general query methods.
+
+There are accessor methods for every consumer context parameter listed
+in table \ref{t:ccontext}, \eg for \verb'EDG_WLL_PARAM_QUERY_SERVER'
+we have the following methods:
+\begin{lstlisting}
+void setQueryServer(const std::string& host, int port);
+std::pair<std::string, int> getQueryServer() const;
+\end{lstlisting}
+We can also use the generic accessors for the parameter types
+\verb'Int', \verb'String' and \verb'Time', \eg:
+\begin{lstlisting}
+void setParam(edg_wll_ContextParam name, int value);
+int getParamInt(edg_wll_ContextParam name) const;
+\end{lstlisting}
+
+The C++ API uses \verb'std::vector' instead of \verb'NULL' terminated
+arrays for both query condition lists and results. 
+
+Now we can show the first example of job query from section
+\ref{s:qjobs} rewritten in C++. First we have to include the headers:
