<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>
The TQSqlDriver class is an abstract base class for accessing
SQL databases.
<p>
<p> This class should not be used directly. Use <a href="ntqsqldatabase.html">TQSqlDatabase</a> instead.
<p>See also <a href="database.html">Database Classes</a>.
<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="DriverFeature-enum"></a>TQSqlDriver::DriverFeature</h3>
<p> This enum contains a list of features a driver may support. Use
<a href="#hasFeature">hasFeature</a>() to query whether a feature is supported or not.
<ul>
<li><tt>TQSqlDriver::Transactions</tt> - whether the driver supports SQL transactions
<li><tt>TQSqlDriver::QuerySize</tt> - 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
<a href="ntqsqlquery.html#size">TQSqlQuery::size</a>() will return -1
<li><tt>TQSqlDriver::BLOB</tt> - whether the driver supports Binary Large Object fields
<li><tt>TQSqlDriver::Unicode</tt> - whether the driver supports Unicode strings if the
database server does
<li><tt>TQSqlDriver::PreparedQueries</tt> - whether the driver supports prepared query execution
<li><tt>TQSqlDriver::NamedPlaceholders</tt> - whether the driver supports usage of named placeholders
<li><tt>TQSqlDriver::PositionalPlaceholders</tt> - whether the driver supports usage of positional placeholders
</ul><p> More information about supported features can be found in the
<a href="sql-driver.html">TQt SQL driver</a> documentation.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#hasFeature">hasFeature</a>().
<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="TQSqlDriver"></a>TQSqlDriver::TQSqlDriver ( <a href="ntqobject.html">TQObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent = 0, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0 )
</h3>
Default constructor. Creates a new driver with parent <em>parent</em>,
called <em>name</em>.
<p>
<h3 class=fn><a name="~TQSqlDriver"></a>TQSqlDriver::~TQSqlDriver ()
</h3>
Destroys the object and frees any allocated resources.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="beginTransaction"></a>TQSqlDriver::beginTransaction ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to begin
a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise return FALSE.
The default implementation returns FALSE.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#commitTransaction">commitTransaction</a>() and <a href="#rollbackTransaction">rollbackTransaction</a>().
<h3 class=fn>void <a name="close"></a>TQSqlDriver::close ()<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
</h3>
<p> Derived classes must reimplement this abstract virtual function in
order to close the database connection. Return TRUE on success,
FALSE on failure.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#setOpen">setOpen</a>().
<p>
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="commitTransaction"></a>TQSqlDriver::commitTransaction ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to commit
a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise return FALSE.
The default implementation returns FALSE.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#beginTransaction">beginTransaction</a>() and <a href="#rollbackTransaction">rollbackTransaction</a>().
<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqsqlquery.html">TQSqlQuery</a> <a name="createQuery"></a>TQSqlDriver::createQuery () const<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
</h3>
<p> Creates an empty SQL result on the database. Derived classes must
reimplement this function and return a <a href="ntqsqlquery.html">TQSqlQuery</a> object
appropriate for their database to the caller.
<p>
<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqstring.html">TQString</a> <a name="formatValue"></a>TQSqlDriver::formatValue ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqsqlfield.html">TQSqlField</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;field, bool&nbsp;trimStrings = FALSE ) const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Returns a string representation of the <em>field</em> value for the
database. This is used, for example, when constructing INSERT and
UPDATE statements.
<p> The default implementation returns the value formatted as a string
according to the following rules:
<p> <ul>
<p> <li> If <em>field</em> is NULL, <a href="#nullText">nullText</a>() is returned.
<p> <li> If <em>field</em> 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 <em>trimStrings</em> is
TRUE (the default is FALSE), all trailing whitespace is trimmed
from the field.
<p> <li> If <em>field</em> 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.
<p> <li> If <em>field</em> is bytearray data, and the driver can edit binary
fields, the value is formatted as a hexadecimal string.
<p> <li> For any other field type toString() will be called on its value
and the result returned.
<p> </ul>
<p> <p>See also <a href="ntqvariant.html#toString">TQVariant::toString</a>().

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="hasFeature"></a>TQSqlDriver::hasFeature ( <a href="ntqsqldriver.html#DriverFeature-enum">DriverFeature</a>&nbsp;f ) const<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
</h3>
<p> Returns TRUE if the driver supports feature <em>f</em>; otherwise
returns FALSE.
<p> Note that some databases need to be <a href="#open">open</a>() before this can be
determined.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#DriverFeature-enum">DriverFeature</a>.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isOpen"></a>TQSqlDriver::isOpen () const

<a href="ntqsqlindex.html">TQSqlIndex</a> if the table doesn't have a primary index. The default
implementation returns an empty index.

<p> Returns a <a href="qsqlrecordinfo.html">TQSqlRecordInfo</a> object with meta data for the <a href="ntqsqlquery.html">TQSqlQuery</a>
<em>query</em>. Note that this overloaded function may return less
information than the <a href="#recordInfo">recordInfo</a>() function which takes the name of
a table as parameter.
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="rollbackTransaction"></a>TQSqlDriver::rollbackTransaction ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to
rollback a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise
return FALSE. The default implementation returns FALSE.

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setOpenError"></a>TQSqlDriver::setOpenError ( bool&nbsp;e )<tt> [virtual protected]</tt>
</h3>
Protected function which sets the open error state of the database
to <em>e</em>. Derived classes can use this function to report the
status of <a href="#open">open</a>(). Note that if <em>e</em> is TRUE the open state of the
database is set to closed (i.e. <a href="#isOpen">isOpen</a>() returns FALSE).
<p> <p>See also <a href="#open">open</a>().
<h3 class=fn><a href="ntqstringlist.html">TQStringList</a> <a name="tables"></a>TQSqlDriver::tables ( const&nbsp;<a href="ntqstring.html">TQString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;tableType ) const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Returns a list of tables in the database. The default
implementation returns an empty list.
<p> The <em>tableType</em> 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.
