Member Function Documentation

getAddColumnSql()

softlist< string > MysqlSqlUtil::MysqlColumn::getAddColumnSql

(

AbstractTable

t

)

returns a list of sql strings that can be used to add the column to an existing table

Example:

list<auto> l = col.getAddColumnSql(t);

Parameters

t	the AbstractTable object to modify

getDdlName()

string MysqlSqlUtil::MysqlColumn::getDdlName ( string  name )

virtual

returns the column name with quoting in case the column name is a reserved word

the name returned here will be used when executing DDL

Implements SqlUtil::AbstractDdlObject.

getModifySqlImpl()

softlist< string > MysqlSqlUtil::MysqlColumn::getModifySqlImpl	(	AbstractTable	t,
		AbstractColumn	col,
		*hash	opt
	)

returns a list of sql strings that can be used to modify the column to the new definition

if the column definitions are identical then an empty list is returned

Example:

list<auto> l = col.getModifySql(t, newcol);

The column names are assumed to be equal.

Parameters

t	the AbstractTable object to modify
col	the new column definition
opt	column modification options (none are supported in this class)

Returns

a list of sql strings that can be used to modify the column to the new definition; if the column definitions are identical then an empty list is returned

getRenameSql()

string MysqlSqlUtil::MysqlColumn::getRenameSql	(	AbstractTable	t,
		string	new_name
	)

returns a string that can be used to rename the column

Example:

string str = col.getRenameSql(t, "new_name");

Parameters

t	the AbstractTable object to modify
new_name	the new name for the column

Returns

a string that can be used to rename the column
