Class RWDBSchema is an ordered collection of RWDBColumn instances. An RWDBSchema serves as an encapsulation of the database notion of schema, a set of attributes defining a table. The DB Interface Module extends this notion slightly by using an RWDBSchema to define a stored procedure's formal parameter list, and to specify a list of columns wherever one is required. Each RWDBSchema can have foreign key, primary key, check constraint, and unique constraint information associated with it.
Every RWDBTable has an RWDBSchema. An application can interrogate the RWDBSchema of an RWDBTable for schema information, or obtain a copy of an RWDBSchema for its own use. An RWDBSchema instance may be used to create a database table. To do this, an application can use an RWDBSchema obtained from an existing RWDBTable, modify an existing RWDBSchema, or build one from scratch using the methods appendColumn(), foreignKey(), primaryKey(), checkConstraint(), and uniqueConstraint().
This class is implemented using a technique called copy on write. With this technique, the copy constructor and assignment operators reference the old object and, as a result, are very fast. An actual copy is made only when the object is about to be changed. The net result is excellent performance, with easy-to-understand copy semantics.
| RWDBSchema::RWDBSchema | ( | ) |
The default constructor creates an empty RWDBSchema, that is, one with zero columns.
| RWDBSchema::RWDBSchema | ( | const RWDBSchema & | schema | ) |
Copy constructor. Self shares an implementation with schema until the data is modified.
| RWDBSchema::RWDBSchema | ( | const RWDBPrimaryKey & | pk | ) |
Constructor. Self shares an implementation with pk until the data is modified.
| void RWDBSchema::acquire | ( | ) | const |
Attempts to acquire the internal mutex lock. If the mutex is already locked by another thread, the function blocks until the mutex is released. This function can be called from a const object.
| RWDBColumn RWDBSchema::appendColumn | ( | const RWCString & | name, |
| RWDBValue::ValueType | type = RWDBValue::NoType, | ||
| long | storageLength = RWDB_NO_TRAIT, | ||
| int | nativeType = RWDB_NO_TRAIT, | ||
| int | precision = RWDB_NO_TRAIT, | ||
| int | scale = RWDB_NO_TRAIT, | ||
| bool | nullAllowed = true, | ||
| RWDBColumn::ParamType | paramType = RWDBColumn::notAParameter ) |
Constructs a new RWDBColumn according to the supplied parameters, appends it to self, and returns it. Applications using this method must usually supply only name and type, as well as storageLength, if type is RWDBValue::String.
| name | Represents the name of the new column appended to the schema. |
| type | Should be one of the data type attributes of the DB Interface Module. See RWDBValue::ValueType for more explanation. |
| storageLength | Should be set if the data type requires a size, such as String or Blob data types. |
| nativeType | Should be set if one of the data type attributes of the DB Interface Module cannot represent the native data type of the database. If this field is set, type should be left as the default to show that a native data type was requested. You can determine native data types of a specific database through documentation or header files. |
| precision | precision is set when specifying a numeric data type, such as Decimal. The precision of the resulting column is set accordingly. |
| scale | scale is set when specifying a numeric data type, such as Decimal. The scale of the resulting column is set accordingly. |
| nullAllowed | Should be set to false if a column requires a value. The default value of true allows a column's value to be set to NULL. |
| paramType | Should be set when specifying the parameters of a stored procedure. See RWDBStoredProc for more information on how to use this parameter. For normal tables, use the default value. |
| RWDBColumn RWDBSchema::appendColumn | ( | const RWDBColumn & | col | ) |

Produces a deep copy of self.
| RWDBColumn RWDBSchema::column | ( | const RWCString & | name | ) | const |
Returns a shallow copy of the column from self whose name matches the given name. If there is no match, returns an RWDBColumn with a status of RWDBStatus::columnNotFound.
| RWDBColumn RWDBSchema::column | ( | const RWCString & | name, |
| RWCString::caseCompare | caseCompare ) const |
Returns a shallow copy of the column from self whose name matches the given name, according to caseCompare. If there is no match, returns an RWDBColumn with a status of RWDBStatus::columnNotFound.
| RWDBColumn RWDBSchema::column | ( | size_t | index | ) | const |
Returns a shallow copy of the column from self at the specified index. If index is out of range, returns an RWDBColumn with a status of RWDBStatus::invalidPosition.
| RWCString RWDBSchema::columnName | ( | size_t | index | ) | const |
Returns the name of the column at the specified index.
| size_t RWDBSchema::entries | ( | ) | const |

| size_t RWDBSchema::index | ( | const RWDBColumn & | column | ) | const |

| bool RWDBSchema::isEmpty | ( | ) | const |
Returns true if self contains zero entries, otherwise returns false.
| bool RWDBSchema::isValid | ( | ) | const |

| RWDBColumn RWDBSchema::operator[] | ( | size_t | index | ) | const |
Returns the RWDBColumn in self at position index. If index is out of range, returns an RWDBColumn with a status of RWDBStatus::invalidPosition. Indexing into an empty schema is treated as out of range.
| RWDBPrimaryKey RWDBSchema::primaryKey | ( | ) | const |
Returns the primary key associated with self. An empty RWDBPrimaryKey indicates there is no primary key associated with self.
| RWDBSchema & RWDBSchema::primaryKey | ( | const RWDBPrimaryKey & | pk | ) |
