ConfigTranslator Function

  • Artikel

Conformance
Version Introduced: ODBC 2.0

Summary
ConfigTranslator returns a default translation option for a translator. It can be in the translator DLL or a separate setup DLL.

Syntax

  
BOOL ConfigTranslator(  
     HWND     hwndParent,  
     DWORD *  pvOption);

Arguments

hwndParent
[Input] Parent window handle. The function will not display any dialog boxes if the handle is null.

pvOption
[Output] A 32-bit translation option.

Returns

The function returns TRUE if it is successful, FALSE if it fails.

Diagnostics

When ConfigTranslator returns FALSE, an associated *pfErrorCode value is posted to the installer error buffer by a call to SQLPostInstallerError and can be obtained by calling SQLInstallerError. The following table lists the *pfErrorCode values that can be returned by SQLInstallerError and explains each one in the context of this function.

*pfErrorCode Error Description
ODBC_ERROR_INVALID_HWND Invalid window handle The hwndParent argument was invalid or NULL.
ODBC_ERROR_DRIVER_SPECIFIC Driver- or translator-specific error A driver-specific error for which there is no defined ODBC installer error. The SzError argument in a call to the SQLPostInstallerError function should contain the driver-specific error message.
ODBC_ERROR_INVALID_OPTION Invalid translation option The pvOption argument contained an invalid value.

Comments

If the translator supports only a single translation option, ConfigTranslator returns TRUE and sets pvOption to the 32-bit option. Otherwise, it determines the default translation option to use. ConfigTranslator can display a dialog box with which a user selects a default translation option.
