DBINT dbconvert
(
DBPROCESS *
dbproc ,
int
srctype ,
const BYTE *
src ,
DBINT
srclen ,
int
desttype ,
BYTE *
dest ,
DBINT
destlen
)
Convert one datatype to another.
Parameters:
dbproc contains all information needed by db-lib to manage communications with the server.
srctype datatype of the data to convert.
src buffer to convert
srclen length of src
desttype target datatype
dest output buffer
destlen size of dest
Returns: On success, the count of output bytes in dest , else -1. On failure, it will call any user-supplied error handler.
Conversion functions are handled in the TDS layer.
The main reason for this is that ct-lib and ODBC (and presumably DBI) need to be able to do conversions between datatypes. This is possible because the format of complex data (dates, money, numeric, decimal) is defined by its representation on the wire; thus what we call DBMONEY is exactly its format on the wire. CLIs that need a different representation (ODBC?) need to convert from this format anyway, so the code would already be in place.
Each datatype is also defined by its Server-type so all CLIs should be able to map native types to server types as well.
tds_convert() copies from src to dest and returns the output data length, period. All padding and termination is the responsibility of the API library and is done post-conversion. The peculiar rule in dbconvert() is that a destlen of -1 and a desttype of SYBCHAR means the output buffer should be null-terminated.
See also: dbaltbind() , dbaltbind_ps(), dbbind() , dbbind_ps(), dbconvert_ps() , dberrhandle() , dbsetnull() , dbsetversion() , dbwillconvert() .
Todo: What happens if client does not reset values?
Microsoft and Sybase define this function differently.

dbconvert() , above
Sybase: Convert numeric types.
Parameters:
dbproc contains all information needed by db-lib to manage communications with the server.
srctype datatype of the data to convert.
src buffer to convert
srclen length of src
desttype target datatype
dest output buffer
destlen size of dest
typeinfo address of a DBTYPEINFO structure that governs the precision & scale of the output, may be NULL.

Get count of rows processed.
Parameters:
dbproc contains all information needed by db-lib to manage communications with the server.
Returns:
for insert/update/delete, count of rows affected.
for select, count of rows returned, after all rows have been fetched.
See also: DBCOUNT() , dbnextrow() , dbresults() .
BYTE* dbdata
(
DBPROCESS *
dbproc ,
int
column
)
Get address of data in a regular result column.
Parameters:
dbproc contains all information needed by db-lib to manage communications with the server.
column Nth in the result set, starting from 1.
Returns: pointer the data, or NULL if data are NULL, or if column is out of range.
See also: dbbind() , dbcollen() , dbcolname() , dbcoltype() , dbdatlen() , dbnumcols() .
Break a DBDATETIME value into useful pieces.
Parameters:
dbproc contains all information needed by db-lib to manage communications with the server.

datetime input: DBDATETIME to be converted.
Return values:
If DBPROCESS is NULL, dbdatecrack() uses the compiled in default value of MSDBLIB as of when libsybdb was compiled, irrespective of its value when the application is compiled. This can lead to incorrect results because Sybase and Microsoft use different ranges -- [0,11] vs. [1,12] -- for the month.
See also: dbconvert() , dbdata() , dbdatechar(), dbdatename(), dbdatepart(), tdsdbopen() .
DBINT dbdatlen
(
DBPROCESS *

Parameters:
dbproc contains all information needed by db-lib to manage communications with the server.

RETCODE dbgetrow
(
DBPROCESS *
dbproc ,
DBINT
row
)
Read a row from the row buffer.
When row buffering is enabled (DBBUFFER option is on), the client can use dbgetrow() to re-read a row previously fetched with dbnextrow() . The effect is to move the row pointer -- analogous to fseek() -- back to row . Calls to dbnextrow() read from row + 1 until the buffer is exhausted, at which point it resumes its normal behavior, except that as each row is fetched from the server, it is added to the row buffer (in addition to being returned to the client). When the buffer is filled, dbnextrow() returns FAIL until the buffer is at least partially emptied with dbclrbuf() .
Parameters:
dbproc contains all information needed by db-lib to manage communications with the server.
row Nth row to read, starting with 1.
Return values:
REG_ROW returned row is a regular row.
Returns: computeid when returned row is a compute row.
Return values:
NO_MORE_ROWS no such row in the row buffer. Current row is unchanged.
FAIL unsuccessful; row buffer may be full.
See also: dbaltbind() , dbbind() , dbclrbuf() , DBCURROW() , DBFIRSTROW() , DBLASTROW() , dbnextrow() , dbsetrow() .

Parameters:

Return values:
See also: dbsetuserdata() .

FAIL cannot allocate an array of TDS_MAX_CONN TDSSOCKET pointers.
Indicates whether or not the count returned by dbcount is real (Microsoft-compatibility feature).
Parameters:

void dbrecftos
(
const char
filename []
)
Record to a file all SQL commands sent to the server.
Parameters:

See also: dbopen() , TDSDUMP environment variable().
Set up query results.
Parameters:
dbproc contains all information needed by db-lib to manage communications with the server.
Return values:
SUCCEED Some results are available.
FAIL query was not processed successfully by the server
NO_MORE_RESULTS query produced no results.
The meaning of results is very specific and not very intuitive. Results are created by either
a SELECT statement
a stored procedure
When dbresults returns SUCCEED, therefore, it indicates the server processed the query successfully and that one or more of these is present:
If none of the above are present, dbresults() returns NO_MORE_RESULTS.
SUCCEED does not imply that DBROWS() will return TRUE or even that dbnumcols() will return nonzero. A general algorithm for reading results will call dbresults() until it return NO_MORE_RESULTS (or FAIL). An application should check for all the above kinds of results within the dbresults() loop.
