Detailed Description
The TQSqlDriver class is an abstract base class for accessing
SQL databases.
This class should not be used directly. Use TQSqlDatabase instead.
See also Database Classes.
Member Type Documentation
TQSqlDriver::DriverFeature
This enum contains a list of features a driver may support. Use
hasFeature() to query whether a feature is supported or not.
- TQSqlDriver::Transactions - whether the driver supports SQL transactions
- TQSqlDriver::QuerySize - whether the database is capable of reporting the size
of a query. Note that some databases do not support returning the size
(i.e. number of rows returned) of a query, in which case
TQSqlQuery::size() will return -1
- TQSqlDriver::BLOB - whether the driver supports Binary Large Object fields
- TQSqlDriver::Unicode - whether the driver supports Unicode strings if the
database server does
- TQSqlDriver::PreparedQueries - whether the driver supports prepared query execution
- TQSqlDriver::NamedPlaceholders - whether the driver supports usage of named placeholders
- TQSqlDriver::PositionalPlaceholders - whether the driver supports usage of positional placeholders
More information about supported features can be found in the
TQt SQL driver documentation.
See also hasFeature().
Member Function Documentation
TQSqlDriver::TQSqlDriver ( TQObject * parent = 0, const char * name = 0 )
Default constructor. Creates a new driver with parent parent,
called name.
TQSqlDriver::~TQSqlDriver ()
Destroys the object and frees any allocated resources.
bool TQSqlDriver::beginTransaction () [virtual]
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to begin
a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise return FALSE.
The default implementation returns FALSE.
See also commitTransaction() and rollbackTransaction().
void TQSqlDriver::close () [pure virtual]
Derived classes must reimplement this abstract virtual function in
order to close the database connection. Return TRUE on success,
FALSE on failure.
See also setOpen().
bool TQSqlDriver::commitTransaction () [virtual]
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to commit
a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise return FALSE.
The default implementation returns FALSE.
See also beginTransaction() and rollbackTransaction().
TQSqlQuery TQSqlDriver::createQuery () const [pure virtual]
Creates an empty SQL result on the database. Derived classes must
reimplement this function and return a TQSqlQuery object
appropriate for their database to the caller.
TQString TQSqlDriver::formatValue ( const TQSqlField * field, bool trimStrings = FALSE ) const [virtual]
Returns a string representation of the field value for the
database. This is used, for example, when constructing INSERT and
UPDATE statements.
The default implementation returns the value formatted as a string
according to the following rules:
- If field is NULL, nullText() is returned.
- If field is character data, the value is returned enclosed
in single quotation marks, which is appropriate for many SQL
databases. Any embedded single-quote characters are escaped
(replaced with two single-quote characters). If trimStrings is
TRUE (the default is FALSE), all trailing whitespace is trimmed
from the field.
- If field is date/time data, the value is formatted in ISO
format and enclosed in single quotation marks. If the date/time
data is invalid, nullText() is returned.
- If field is bytearray data, and the driver can edit binary
fields, the value is formatted as a hexadecimal string.
- For any other field type toString() will be called on its value
and the result returned.
See also TQVariant::toString().
bool TQSqlDriver::hasFeature ( DriverFeature f ) const [pure virtual]
Returns TRUE if the driver supports feature f; otherwise
returns FALSE.
Note that some databases need to be open() before this can be
determined.
See also DriverFeature.
bool TQSqlDriver::isOpen () const
Returns TRUE if the database connection is open; otherwise returns
FALSE.
bool TQSqlDriver::isOpenError () const
Returns TRUE if the there was an error opening the database
connection; otherwise returns FALSE.
TQSqlError TQSqlDriver::lastError () const
Returns a TQSqlError object which contains information about the
last error that occurred on the database.
TQString TQSqlDriver::nullText () const [virtual]
Returns a string representation of the NULL value for the
database. This is used, for example, when constructing INSERT and
UPDATE statements. The default implementation returns the string
"NULL".
bool TQSqlDriver::open ( const TQString & db, const TQString & user = TQString::null, const TQString & password = TQString::null, const TQString & host = TQString::null, int port = -1 ) [pure virtual]
Derived classes must reimplement this abstract virtual function in
order to open a database connection on database db, using user
name user, password password, host host and port port.
The function must return TRUE on success and FALSE on failure.
See also setOpen().
bool TQSqlDriver::open ( const TQString & db, const TQString & user, const TQString & password, const TQString & host, int port, const TQString & connOpts )
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
Open a database connection on database db, using user name user, password password, host host, port port and
connection options connOpts.
Returns TRUE on success and FALSE on failure.
See also setOpen().
TQSqlIndex TQSqlDriver::primaryIndex ( const TQString & tableName ) const [virtual]
Returns the primary index for table tableName. Returns an empty
TQSqlIndex if the table doesn't have a primary index. The default
implementation returns an empty index.
TQSqlRecord TQSqlDriver::record ( const TQString & tableName ) const [virtual]
Returns a TQSqlRecord populated with the names of the fields in
table tableName. If no such table exists, an empty record is
returned. The default implementation returns an empty record.
TQSqlRecord TQSqlDriver::record ( const TQSqlQuery & query ) const [virtual]
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
Returns a TQSqlRecord populated with the names of the fields in the
SQL query. The default implementation returns an empty record.
TQSqlRecordInfo TQSqlDriver::recordInfo ( const TQString & tablename ) const [virtual]
Returns a TQSqlRecordInfo object with meta data about the table tablename.
TQSqlRecordInfo TQSqlDriver::recordInfo ( const TQSqlQuery & query ) const [virtual]
This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
Returns a TQSqlRecordInfo object with meta data for the TQSqlQuery
query. Note that this overloaded function may return less
information than the recordInfo() function which takes the name of
a table as parameter.
bool TQSqlDriver::rollbackTransaction () [virtual]
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to
rollback a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise
return FALSE. The default implementation returns FALSE.
See also beginTransaction() and commitTransaction().
void TQSqlDriver::setLastError ( const TQSqlError & e ) [virtual protected]
Protected function which allows derived classes to set the value
of the last error, e, that occurred on the database.
See also lastError().
void TQSqlDriver::setOpen ( bool o ) [virtual protected]
Protected function which sets the open state of the database to o. Derived classes can use this function to report the status of
open().
See also open() and setOpenError().
void TQSqlDriver::setOpenError ( bool e ) [virtual protected]
Protected function which sets the open error state of the database
to e. Derived classes can use this function to report the
status of open(). Note that if e is TRUE the open state of the
database is set to closed (i.e. isOpen() returns FALSE).
See also open().
TQStringList TQSqlDriver::tables ( const TQString & tableType ) const [virtual]
Returns a list of tables in the database. The default
implementation returns an empty list.
The tableType argument describes what types of tables
should be returned. Due to binary compatibility, the string
contains the value of the enum TQSql::TableTypes as text.
An empty string should be treated as TQSql::Tables for
downward compatibility.
See also TQSql::TableType.
