AtlTraceErrorRecords

Dumps OLE DB Error Record information to the dump device if an error is returned.

Syntax

inline void AtlTraceErrorRecords(HRESULT hrErr = S_OK);

Parameters

hErr
[in] An HRESULT returned by an OLE DB Consumer Template member function.

Remarks

If hErr is not S_OK, AtlTraceErrorRecords dumps OLE DB Error Record information to the dump device (the Debug tab of the Output window or a file). The Error Record information, which is obtained from the provider, includes row number, source, description, help file, context, and GUID for each error record entry. AtlTraceErrorRecords dumps this information only in debug builds. In release builds, it is an empty stub that is optimized out. For more information, see CDBErrorInfo Class.

BEGIN_ACCESSOR

Marks the beginning of an accessor entry.

Syntax

BEGIN_ACCESSOR(num, bAuto)

Parameters

num
[in] The zero-offset number for the accessor in this accessor map.

bAuto
[in] Specifies if this accessor is an auto accessor or a manual accessor. If true, the accessor is auto; if false, the accessor is manual. An auto accessor means data is fetched for you on move operations.

Remarks

In the case of multiple accessors on a rowset, you need to specify BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP and use the BEGIN_ACCESSOR macro for each individual accessor. The BEGIN_ACCESSOR macro is completed with the END_ACCESSOR macro. The BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP macro is completed with the END_ACCESSOR_MAP macro.

Example

See BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP.

BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP

Marks the beginning of the accessor map entries.

Syntax

BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP(x, num)

Parameters

x
[in] The name of the user record class.

num
[in] The number of accessors in this accessor map.

Remarks

In the case of multiple accessors on a rowset, you need to specify BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP at the beginning and use the BEGIN_ACCESSOR macro for each individual accessor. The BEGIN_ACCESSOR macro is completed with the END_ACCESSOR macro. The accessor map is completed with the END_ACCESSOR_MAP macro.

If you have only one accessor in the user record, use the macro BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP.

Example

class CArtistsAccessor
{
public:
// Data Elements
   TCHAR m_szFirstName[21];
   TCHAR m_szLastName[31];
   short m_nAge;

// Output binding map
BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP(CArtistsAccessor, 2)
   BEGIN_ACCESSOR(0, true)
      COLUMN_ENTRY(1, m_szFirstName)
      COLUMN_ENTRY(2, m_szLastName)
   END_ACCESSOR()
   BEGIN_ACCESSOR(1, false) // Not an auto accessor
      COLUMN_ENTRY(3, m_nAge)
   END_ACCESSOR()
END_ACCESSOR_MAP()

   HRESULT OpenDataSource()
   {
      CDataSource _db;
      _db.Open();
      return m_session.Open(_db);
   }

   void CloseDataSource()
   {
      m_session.Close();
   }

   CSession m_session;

   DEFINE_COMMAND_EX(CArtistsAccessor, L" \
   SELECT \
      FirstName, \
      LastName, \
      Age \
      FROM Artists")
};

END_ACCESSOR

Marks the end of an accessor entry.

Syntax

END_ACCESSOR()

Remarks

For multiple accessors on a rowset, you need to specify BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP and use the BEGIN_ACCESSOR macro for each individual accessor. The BEGIN_ACCESSOR macro is completed with the END_ACCESSOR macro. The BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP macro is completed with the END_ACCESSOR_MAP macro.

Example

See BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP.

END_ACCESSOR_MAP

Marks the end of the accessor map entries.

Syntax

END_ACCESSOR_MAP()

Remarks

For multiple accessors on a rowset, you need to specify BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP and use the BEGIN_ACCESSOR macro for each individual accessor. The BEGIN_ACCESSOR macro is completed with the END_ACCESSOR macro. The BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP macro is completed with the END_ACCESSOR_MAP macro.

Example

See BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP.

BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP

Marks the beginning of a column map entry.

Syntax

BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP(x)

Parameters

x
[in] The name of the user record class derived from CAccessor.

Remarks

This macro is used in the case of a single accessor on a rowset. If you have multiple accessors on a rowset, use BEGIN_ACCESSOR_MAP.

The BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP macro is completed with the END_COLUMN_MAP macro. This macro is used when there is only one accessor required in the user record.

Columns correspond to fields in the rowset you want to bind.

Example

Here is a sample column and parameter map:

Syntax

COLUMN_NAME_TYPE(pszName, wType, data)

Parameters

pszName
[in] A pointer to the column name. The name must be a Unicode string. You can accomplish this by putting an 'L' in front of the name, for example: L"MyColumn".

wType
[in] The data type.

data
[in] The corresponding data member in the user record.

Remarks

See COLUMN_NAME for information on where the COLUMN_NAME_* macros are used.

COLUMN_NAME_TYPE_PS

Syntax

COLUMN_NAME_TYPE_PS(pszName, wType, nPrecision, nScale, data)

Parameters

pszName
[in] A pointer to the column name. The name must be a Unicode string. You can accomplish this by putting an 'L' in front of the name, for example: L"MyColumn".

wType
[in] The data type.

nPrecision
[in] The maximum precision to use when getting data and wType is DBTYPE_NUMERIC. Otherwise, this parameter is ignored.

nScale
[in] The scale to use when getting data and wType is DBTYPE_NUMERIC or DBTYPE_DECIMAL.

data
[in] The corresponding data member in the user record.

Remarks

See COLUMN_NAME for information on where the COLUMN_NAME_* macros are used.

COLUMN_NAME_TYPE_SIZE

Represents a binding on the rowset to the specific column in the rowset. Similar to COLUMN_NAME, except that this macro also takes data type and size.

Syntax

COLUMN_NAME_TYPE_SIZE(pszName, wType, nLength, data)

Parameters

pszName
[in] A pointer to the column name. The name must be a Unicode string. You can accomplish this by putting an 'L' in front of the name, for example: L"MyColumn".

wType
[in] The data type.

nLength
[in] The data size in bytes.

data
[in] The corresponding data member in the user record.

Remarks

See COLUMN_NAME for information on where the COLUMN_NAME_* macros are used.

COLUMN_NAME_TYPE_STATUS

Represents a binding on the rowset to the specific column in the rowset. Similar to COLUMN_NAME, except that this macro also takes data type and column status.

Syntax

COLUMN_NAME_TYPE_STATUS(pszName, wType, status, data)

Parameters

pszName
[in] A pointer to the column name. The name must be a Unicode string. You can accomplish this by putting an 'L' in front of the name, for example: L"MyColumn".

wType
[in] The data type.

status
[in] The variable to be bound to the column status.

data
[in] The corresponding data member in the user record.

Remarks

See COLUMN_NAME for information on where the COLUMN_NAME_* macros are used.

END_COLUMN_MAP

Marks the end of the column map entries.

Syntax

END_COLUMN_MAP()

Remarks

It is used with a single accessor on a rowset. The BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP macro is completed with the END_COLUMN_MAP macro.

Example

See BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP.

DEFINE_COMMAND

Specifies the command that will be used to create the rowset when using the CCommand class. Accepts only string types matching the specified application type (ANSI or Unicode).

Note

It is recommended that you use DEFINE_COMMAND_EX instead of DEFINE_COMMAND.

Syntax

DEFINE_COMMAND(x, szCommand)

Parameters

x
[in] The name of the user record (command) class.

szCommand
[in] The command string that will be used to create the rowset when using CCommand.

Remarks

The command string that you specify will be used as the default if you do not specify command text in the CCommand::Open method.

This macro accepts ANSI strings if you build your application as ANSI, or Unicode strings if you build your application as Unicode. It is recommended that you use DEFINE_COMMAND_EX instead of DEFINE_COMMAND, because the former accepts Unicode strings, regardless of the ANSI or Unicode application type.

Example

See BOOKMARK_ENTRY.

DEFINE_COMMAND_EX

Specifies the command that will be used to create the rowset when using the CCommand class. Supports Unicode and ANSI applications.

Syntax

DEFINE_COMMAND_EX(x, wszCommand)

Parameters

x
[in] The name of the user record (command) class.

wszCommand
[in] The command string that will be used to create the rowset when using CCommand.

Remarks

The command string that you specify will be used as the default if you do not specify command text in the CCommand::Open method.

This macro accepts Unicode strings, regardless of the application type. This macro is preferred over DEFINE_COMMAND because it supports Unicode as well as ANSI applications.

Example

See BOOKMARK_ENTRY.

BEGIN_PARAM_MAP

Marks the beginning of the parameter map entries.

Syntax

BEGIN_PARAM_MAP(x)

Parameters

x
[in] The name of the user record class.

Remarks

Parameters are used by commands.

Example

See the example for the BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP macro.

END_PARAM_MAP

Marks the end of the parameter map entries.

Syntax

END_PARAM_MAP()

Example

See the example for the BEGIN_PARAM_MAP macro.

SET_PARAM_TYPE

Specifies COLUMN_ENTRY macros that follow the SET_PARAM_TYPE macro input, output, or input/output.

Syntax

SET_PARAM_TYPE(type)

Parameters

type
[in] The type to set for the parameter.

Remarks

Providers support only parameter input/output types that are supported by the underlying data source. The type is a combination of one or more DBPARAMIO values (see DBBINDING Structures in the OLE DB Programmer's Reference):

  • DBPARAMIO_NOTPARAM The accessor has no parameters. Typically, you set eParamIO to this value in row accessors to remind the user that parameters are ignored.

  • DBPARAMIO_INPUT An input parameter.

  • DBPARAMIO_OUTPUT An output parameter.

  • DBPARAMIO_INPUT | DBPARAMIO_OUTPUT The parameter is both an input and an output parameter.

Example

class CArtistsProperty
{
public:
   short m_nReturn;
   short m_nAge;
   TCHAR m_szFirstName[21];
   TCHAR m_szLastName[31];

BEGIN_PARAM_MAP(CArtistsProperty)
   SET_PARAM_TYPE(DBPARAMIO_OUTPUT)
   COLUMN_ENTRY(1, m_nReturn)
   SET_PARAM_TYPE(DBPARAMIO_INPUT)
   COLUMN_ENTRY(2, m_nAge)
END_PARAM_MAP()

BEGIN_COLUMN_MAP(CArtistsProperty)
   COLUMN_ENTRY(1, m_szFirstName)
   COLUMN_ENTRY(2, m_szLastName)
END_COLUMN_MAP()

   HRESULT OpenDataSource()
   {
      CDataSource _db;
      _db.Open();
      return m_session.Open(_db);
   }

   void CloseDataSource()
   {
      m_session.Close();
   }

   CSession m_session;

   DEFINE_COMMAND_EX(CArtistsProperty, L" \
      { ? = SELECT Age FROM Artists WHERE Age < ? }")
};
