Description

Any query (which can be of any type, see the GdaQueryType enum) can be represented by a GdaQuery object. Also a query may require some parameters to be provided before in can be executed; each parameter is then represented by a GdaParameter object, and parameters required for a query are organised within a GdaParameterList object.

It implements the GdaEntity, GdaXmlStorage, GdaReferer and GdaRenderer interfaces.

Details

GdaQuery

typedef struct _GdaQuery GdaQuery;


enum GdaQueryType

typedef enum {
        GDA_QUERY_TYPE_SELECT,
	GDA_QUERY_TYPE_INSERT,
	GDA_QUERY_TYPE_UPDATE,
	GDA_QUERY_TYPE_DELETE,
        GDA_QUERY_TYPE_UNION,
        GDA_QUERY_TYPE_INTERSECT,
	GDA_QUERY_TYPE_EXCEPT,
        GDA_QUERY_TYPE_NON_PARSED_SQL
} GdaQueryType;


gda_query_new ()

GdaQuery*           gda_query_new                       (GdaDict *dict);

Creates a new GdaQuery object

dict :

a GdaDict object

Returns :

the new object

gda_query_new_copy ()

GdaQuery*           gda_query_new_copy                  (GdaQuery *orig,
                                                         GHashTable *replacements);

Copy constructor

orig :

a GdaQuery to make a copy of

replacements :

a hash table to store replacements, or NULL

Returns :

a the new copy of orig

gda_query_new_from_sql ()

GdaQuery*           gda_query_new_from_sql              (GdaDict *dict,
                                                         const gchar *sql,
                                                         GError **error);

Creates a new GdaQuery object and fills its structure by parsing the sql. If the parsing failed, then the returned query is of type GDA_QUERY_TYPE_NON_PARSED_SQL.

To be parsed successfully, the expected SQL must respect the SQL standard; some extensions have been added to be able to define variables within the SQL statement. See the introduction to the GdaQuery for more information.

The error is set only if the SQL statement parsing produced an error; there is always a new GdaQuery object which is returned.

dict :

a GdaDict object

sql :

an SQL statement

error :

location to store error, or NULL

Returns :

a new GdaQuery

gda_query_declare_condition ()

void                gda_query_declare_condition         (GdaQuery *query,
                                                         GdaQueryCondition *cond);

Declares the existence of a new condition to query. All the GdaQueryCondition objects MUST be declared to the corresponding GdaQuery object for the library to work correctly. Once cond has been declared, query does not hold any reference to cond.

This functions is called automatically from each gda_query_condition_new* function, and it should not be necessary to call it except for classes extending the GdaQueryCondition class.

query :

a GdaQuery object

cond :

a GdaQueryCondition object

                                                         GdaQueryCondition *cond);

Explicitely ask query to forget about the existence of cond. This function is used by the GdaQueryCondition implementation, and should not be called directly

query :

a GdaQuery object

cond :

a GdaQueryCondition object

gda_query_set_query_type ()

Sets the type of query

query :

a GdaQuery object

type :

the new type of query

gda_query_get_query_type ()

GdaQueryType        gda_query_get_query_type            (GdaQuery *query);

Get the type of a query

Returns :

gda_query_get_query_type_string ()

const gchar*        gda_query_get_query_type_string     (GdaQuery *query);

a GdaQuery object

Returns :

a string for the type of query

gda_query_is_select_query ()

gboolean            gda_query_is_select_query           (GdaQuery *query);

Tells if query is a SELECTION query (a simple SELECT, UNION, INTERSECT or EXCEPT);

query :

a # GdaQuery object

Returns :

TRUE if query is a selection query

gda_query_is_insert_query ()

gboolean            gda_query_is_insert_query           (GdaQuery *query);
