    This method or property must be called within the lambda passed to QueuedTask.Run.
    Remarks
    If the whereClause is null or empty string, then the active query definition is removed and the layer no longer has an active definition query.Where there is an active definition query, this function updates the where clause of tha definition query with the whereClause you pass in.If the whereClause is non-null, and there is no active definition query, a new definition query with the specified where clause is created and becomes the active definition query. An auto generated name gets assigned. All other definition queries that are not active remain unchanged.Use SetActiveDefinitionQuery to activate or deactivate any existing definition query.
