Detailed Description

the base class for column information

Member Function Documentation

◆ getAddColumnSql()

abstract list< auto > SqlUtil::AbstractColumn::getAddColumnSql ( AbstractTable  t)
pure virtual

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

Example:
list l = col.getAddColumnSql(t);
Parameters
tthe AbstractTable object to modify
Returns
a list of sql strings that can be used to add the column to an existing table

◆ getDescriptionHash()

hash< GenericColumnInfo > SqlUtil::AbstractColumn::getDescriptionHash ( )

Returns a description hash of the column.

Returns
a description hash of the column
Since
SqlUtil 1.7.5

◆ getModifySql()

list< auto > SqlUtil::AbstractColumn::getModifySql ( AbstractTable  t,
AbstractColumn  c,
*hash< auto >  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 l = col.getModifySql(t, newcol);

The column names are assumed to be equal.

Parameters
tthe AbstractTable object to modify
cthe new column definition
optcolumn modification options (if supported by the underlying driver)
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

◆ getModifySqlImpl()

abstract list< auto > SqlUtil::AbstractColumn::getModifySqlImpl ( AbstractTable  t,
AbstractColumn  c,
*hash< auto >  opt 
)
privatepure virtual

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 l = col.getModifySql(t, newcol);

The column names are assumed to be equal.

Parameters
tthe AbstractTable object to modify
cthe new column definition
optcolumn modification options (if supported by the underlying driver)
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

◆ getNativeTypeString()

string SqlUtil::AbstractColumn::getNativeTypeString ( )

returns the string describing the native type that can be used in SQL

for example to add the colunn to a table or when creating the table

◆ getRenameSql()

abstract string SqlUtil::AbstractColumn::getRenameSql ( AbstractTable  t,
string  new_name 
)
pure virtual

returns a string that can be used to rename the column

Example:
string str = col.getRenameSql(t, "new_name");
Parameters
tthe AbstractTable object to modify
new_namethe new name for the column
Returns
a string that can be used to rename the column
