CRecordset::Update

Completes an AddNew or Edit operation by saving the new or edited data on the data source.

virtual BOOL Update( );

Return Value

Nonzero if one record was successfully updated; otherwise 0 if no columns have changed. If no records were updated, or if more than one record was updated, an exception is thrown. An exception is also thrown for any other failure on the data source.

Remarks

Call this member function after a call to the AddNew or Edit member function. This call is required to complete the AddNew or Edit operation.

Hinweis

If you have implemented bulk row fetching, you cannot call Update. This will result in a failed assertion. Although class CRecordset does not provide a mechanism for updating bulk rows of data, you can write your own functions by using the ODBC API function SQLSetPos. For more information about bulk row fetching, see the article Recordset: Fetching Records in Bulk (ODBC).

Both AddNew and Edit prepare an edit buffer in which the added or edited data is placed for saving to the data source. Update saves the data. Only those fields marked or detected as changed are updated.

If the data source supports transactions, you can make the Update call (and its corresponding AddNew or Edit call) part of a transaction. For more information about transactions, see the article Transaction (ODBC).

Warnung

If you call Update without first calling either AddNew or Edit, Update throws a CDBException. If you call AddNew or Edit, you must call Update before you call a Move operation or before you close either the recordset or the data source connection. Otherwise, your changes are lost without notification.

For details on handling Update failures, see the article Recordset: How Recordsets Update Records (ODBC).

Exceptions

This method can throw exceptions of type CDBException*.

Example

See the article Transaction: Performing a Transaction in a Recordset (ODBC).
