ResultSet Class

A ResultSet provides access to a table of data generated by executing a Statement. Table rows are retrieved in sequence. Within a row, column values can be accessed in any order.

A ResultSet maintains a cursor pointing to its current row of data. Initially the cursor is positioned before the first row. The next method moves the cursor to the next row.

The getxxx() methods retrieve column values for the current row. You can retrieve values using the index number of the column. Columns are numbered beginning at 1. For the getxxx() methods, OCCI attempts to convert the underlying data to the specified C++ type and returns a C++ value. SQL types are mapped to C++ types with the ResultSet::getxxx() methods.

The number, types and properties of a ResultSet's columns are provided by the MetaData object returned by the getColumnListMetaData() method.

getColumnListMetaData()

The number, types and properties of a ResultSet's columns are provided by the getMetaData method. Returns the description of a ResultSet's columns. This method will return the value of the given column as a PObject. The type of the C++ object will be the C++ PObject type corresponding to the column's SQL type registered with Environment's map. This method is used to materialize data of SQL user-defined types.

Syntax

getCurrentStreamColumn()

If the result set has any input Stream parameters, this method returns the column index of the current input Stream that must be read.

Syntax

unsigned int getCurrentStreamColumn() const;

getCurrentStreamRow()

If the result has any input Streams, this method returns the current row of the result set that is being processed by OCCI. If this method is called after all the rows in the set of array of rows have been processed, it returns 0. Returns the row number of the current row that is being processed. The first row is numbered 1 and so on.

Syntax

unsigned int getCurrentStreamRow() const;

getCursor()

getVectorOfRefs()

Returns the column in the current position as a vector of REFs. The column should be a collection type (varray or nested table) of REFs. It is recommend to use this function instead of specialized method getVector() for Ref<T>.

Syntax

void getVectorOfRefs(
   ResultSet *rs,
   unsigned int colIndex,
   vector< Ref<T> > &vect);

rs

colIndex

vect

isNull()

A column may have the value of SQL NULL; isNull() reports whether the last column read had this special value. Note that you must first call getxxx() on a column to try to read its value and then call isNull() to find if the value was the SQL NULL. Returns TRUE if last column read was SQL NULL.

Syntax

bool isNull(
   unsigned int colIndex) const;

colIndex

isTruncated()

This method checks whether the value of the parameter is truncated. If the value of the parameter is truncated, then TRUE is returned; otherwise, FALSE is returned.

Syntax

bool isTruncated(
   unsigned int paramIndex) const;

paramIndex

next()

This method fetches a specified number of rows, numRows, from a previously executed query, and reports the Status of this fetch as definded in Table 12-37.

For non-streamed mode, next() will only return the status of DATA_AVAILABLE or END_OF_FETCH.

• When fetching one row at a time (numRows=1), process the data using getxxx() methods.

• When fetching several rows at once (numRows>1), as in an Array Fetch, you must use the setDataBuffer() method to specify the location of your preallocated buffers before invoking next().

Up to numRows data records would populate the buffers specified by the setDataBuffer() call. To determine exactly how many records were returned, use the getNumArrayRows() method.

Syntax

Status next(
   unsigned int numRows =1);

numRows

preTruncationLength()

Returns the actual length of the parameter before truncation.

Syntax

int preTruncationLength(
   unsigned int paramIndex) const;

paramIndex

setBinaryStreamMode()

Defines that a column is to be returned as a binary stream by the getStream method.

Syntax

void setBinaryStreamMode(
   unsigned int colIndex,
   unsigned int size);

colIndex

size

setCharacterStreamMode()

Defines that a column is to be returned as a character stream by the getStream() method.

Syntax

void setCharacterStreamMode(
   unsigned int colIndex,
   unsigned int size);

colIndex

size

setCharSet()

Overrides the default character set for the specified column. Data is converted from the database character set to the specified character set for this column.

Syntax

void setCharSet(
   unsigned int colIndex,
   string charSet);

colIndex

charSet

setCharSetUString()

Specifies the character set value as a UString in which the data is returned.

Syntax

UString setCharSetUString(
   unsigned int colIndex,
   const UString &charSet);

colIndex

charSet

setDatabaseNCHARParam()

If the parameter is going to be retrieved from a column that contains data in the database's NCHAR character set, then OCCI must be informed by passing a TRUE value. A FALSE can be passed to restore the default.

Syntax

void setDatabaseNCHARParam(
   unsigned int paramIndex, 
   bool isNCHAR);

paramIndex

isNCHAR

setDataBuffer()

Specifies a data buffer where data would be fetched. The buffer parameter is a pointer to a user allocated data buffer. The current length of data must be specified in the length parameter. The amount of data should not exceed the size parameter. Finally, type is the data type of the data. Only non OCCI and non C++ specific types can be used, such as STL string. OCCI classes like Bytes and Date cannot be used.

If setDataBuffer() is used to fetch data for array fetches, it should be called only once for each result set. Data for each row is assumed to be at buffer (i- 1)location, where i is the row number. Similarly, the length of the data would be assumed to be at (length+(i-1)).

Syntax

void setDataBuffer(
   unsigned int colIndex,
   void *buffer,
   Type type,
   sb4 size = 0,
   ub2 *length = NULL,
   sb2 *ind = NULL,
   ub2 *rc = NULL);
