What is the difference between Raw and RawQuery?

[RangelReale]

I can use both in sm.Where for example, but Raw surrounds the code in parenthesis, while RawQuery does not.

RawQuery returns a Query, which has some extra methods like Build. However, since queries are also expressions (so that they can be used in places that take a subquery), it also works in many other places.

The parentheses are because whenever a Sub Query is used inside another query, it usually has to be surrounded by parentheses.
