Base class which provides data handling capabilities.
Because data types vary a lot from one DBMS to another, the DataHandler interface helps with designing modules which can handle very specific pieces of data through plugins. Each object which imlements the DataHandler interface is expected to handle a subset of the possible libgda defined data types.
The DataHandler object can convert a Value to and from both SQL and 'STR'. The SQL representation of a value is the actual string which would be used in an SQL statement (for example a string's SQL representation is surrounded by quotes such as 'that a string''). The 'STR' representation is a human-readable representation of a value appropriate for the user's current locale. The 'STR' respresentation of a string is simply the original string without quotes but a numerical value or date, for instance, will be formatted according to the user's current locale.
Only one object which implements this interface is needed for any given data type, and it mainly contains some methods to manage values (as Value structures). The Gnome::Db::DataEntry interface is complementary to this one since it is implemented by widgets in which the user can enter or modify some data.
Creates a new string which is an SQL representation of the given value, the returned string can be used directly in an SQL statement.
For example if value is a G_TYPE_STRING, then the returned string will be correctly quoted. Note however that it is a better practice to use variables in statements instead of value literals, see the GdaSqlParser for more information.
If the value is 0
or is of type GDA_TYPE_NULL, the returned string is "<tt>0</tt>".
- Parameters
-
value | The value to be converted to a string. |
- Returns
- The new string, or
0
if an error occurred.
Value Gnome::Gda::DataHandler::get_value_from_sql |
( |
const Glib::ustring & |
sql, |
|
|
GType |
type |
|
) |
| const |
Creates a new GValue which represents the SQL value given as argument.
This is the opposite of the function get_sql_from_value(). The type argument is used to determine the real data type requested for the returned value.
If the sql string is 0
, then the returned GValue is of type GDA_TYPE_NULL; if the sql string does not correspond to a valid SQL string for the requested type, then the "<tt>0</tt>" string is returned.
- Parameters
-
sql | An SQL string. |
type | A GType. |
- Returns
- The new GValue or
0
on error.
Value Gnome::Gda::DataHandler::get_value_from_str |
( |
const Glib::ustring & |
sql, |
|
|
GType |
type |
|
) |
| const |
Creates a new GValue which represents the STR value given as argument.
This is the opposite of the function get_str_from_value(). The type argument is used to determine the real data type requested for the returned value.
If the str string is 0
, then the returned GValue is of type GDA_TYPE_NULL; if the str string does not correspond to a valid STR string for the requested type, then 0
is returned.
- Parameters
-
str | A string. |
type | A GType. |
- Returns
- The new GValue or
0
on error.
