◆ dbi_get_driver_capabilities()

int Qore::SQL::dbi_get_driver_capabilities ( string  driver)

Returns an integer representing the capabilities of a DBI driver binary-OR'ed together (see DBI Capability Constants) or 0 if the driver is not already loaded.

Code Flags:
CONSTANT
Parameters
driverthe name of the driver; if the given driver is not already loaded then this function returns NOTHING
Returns
an integer representing the capabilities of a DBI driver binary-OR'ed together (see DBI Capability Constants) or 0 if the driver is not already loaded
Example:
int caps = dbi_get_driver_capabilities("pgsql");
int dbi_get_driver_capabilities(string driver)
Returns an integer representing the capabilities of a DBI driver binary-OR'ed together (see DBI Capab...
Note
similar to getDBIDriverCapabilities() except uses the standard function naming scheme (ie "names_like_this()" instead of "camelCase()"), always returns an int, and does not have a NOOP variant
Since
Qore 0.8.6

◆ dbi_get_driver_capability_list()

*list<string> Qore::SQL::dbi_get_driver_capability_list ( string  driver)

Returns a list of each capability supported by the given DBI driver (see DBI Capability Constants) or NOTHING if the driver cannot be found.

Code Flags:
CONSTANT
Parameters
driverthe name of the driver; if the given driver is not loaded then the function returns NOTHING
Returns
a list of each capability supported by the given DBI driver (see DBI Capability Constants) or NOTHING if the driver cannot be found
Example:
*list<string> l = dbi_get_driver_capability_list("pgsql");
*list< string > dbi_get_driver_capability_list(string driver)
Returns a list of each capability supported by the given DBI driver (see DBI Capability Constants) or...
Note
similar to getDBIDriverCapabilityList() except uses the standard function naming scheme (ie "names_like_this()" instead of "camelCase()") and does not have a NOOP variant
Since
Qore 0.8.6

◆ dbi_get_driver_list()

*list<string> Qore::SQL::dbi_get_driver_list ( )

Returns a list of strings of DBI drivers currently loaded or NOTHING if no drivers are loaded.

Returns
a list of strings of DBI drivers currently loaded or NOTHING if no drivers are loaded
Code Flags:
CONSTANT
Example:
*list<string> l = dbi_get_driver_list();
*list< string > dbi_get_driver_list()
Returns a list of strings of DBI drivers currently loaded or NOTHING if no drivers are loaded.
Note
similar to getDBIDriverList() except uses the standard function naming scheme (ie "names_like_this()" instead of "camelCase()")
Since
Qore 0.8.6

◆ dbi_get_driver_options()

*hash<auto> Qore::SQL::dbi_get_driver_options ( string  driver)

returns a hash of driver options

Code Flags:
CONSTANT
Parameters
driverthe name of the driver; if the given driver is not already loaded then this function returns NOTHING
Returns
if the given driver is not already loaded then the function returns NOTHING; if the driver does not support any options then an empty hash is returned, otherwise a hash is returned where the keys are valid option names, and the values are hashes with the following keys:
  • "desc": a string description of the option
  • "type": a string giving the data type restriction for the option
Example:
*hash<auto> h = dbi_get_driver_options("pgsql");
*hash< auto > dbi_get_driver_options(string driver)
returns a hash of driver options
Since
Qore 0.8.6

◆ getDBIDriverCapabilities() [1/2]

nothing Qore::SQL::getDBIDriverCapabilities ( )

This function variant does nothing at all; it is only included for backwards-compatibility with qore prior to version 0.8.0 for functions that would ignore type errors in arguments.
