CCommsDbTableView Class Reference

Deletes the record in the table at the current cursor position.

This function raises a CommsDbServer 3 panic if a previous call to InsertRecord() or UpdateRecord() has been made.

Gets the operations that can be performed on the current view

Gets the name of the table associated with this view and copies it into the descriptor supplied by the caller.

Sets the first record in the view as the current record; i.e. set the view's cursor to point to the first record.

The CommsDbServer 6 panic is also raised if this function is called after the view has been closed.

This function must not be called if any of the operations involved in inserting or updating a record are still outstanding, otherwise the function raises a CommsDbServer 6 panic. For example, the panic is raised if this function is called between calls to UpdateRecord() and PutRecordChanges().

Sets the next record in the view as the current record; i.e. set the view's cursor to point to the next record.

This function must not be called if any of the operations involved in inserting or updating a record are still outstanding, otherwise the function raises a CommsDbServer 7 panic. For example, the panic is raised if this function is called between calls to UpdateRecord() and PutRecordChanges().

The CommsDbServer 7 panic is also raised if this function is called after the view has been closed.

Sets the previous record in the view as the current record; i.e. set the view's cursor to point to the previous record.

This function must not be called if any of the operations involved in inserting or updating a record are still outstanding, otherwise the function raises a CommsDbServer 8 panic. For example, the panic is raised if this function is called between calls to UpdateRecord() and PutRecordChanges().

The CommsDbServer 8 panic is also raised if this function is called after the view has been closed.

Add a new record to this table. Filling all empty fields with values copied from record currently pointed at. The record number is returned. `PutRecordChanges()` is called to complete the transaction

Inserts a row into the the table and writes the {incremented) id to aId Filling all empty fields with values copied from record currently pointed at. The record number is returned.

Prepares database to insert a new record and returns a unique ID for the record to be added.

PutRecordChanges() must be called to add the new entry.

This function sets the CCommsDbTableView onto the new record.

Once all changes to the new record are complete, a call must be made to either PutRecordChanges() or CancelRecordChanges() as appropriate.

This function raises a CommsDbServer 1 panic if a previous call to InsertRecord() or UpdateRecord() has already been made.

This function must be called before any attempt is made to write to a new column, otherwise subsequent write operations raise a CommsDbServer 12 panic.

Once this function has completed successfully, no attempt can be made to read from a column until either PutRecordChanges() or CancelRecordChanges() has been called to complete the record insertion operation, otherwise the read operations raise a CommsDbServer 10 panic.

Internal low level view creation.

Not in use after shim is introduced

Use if CCommsDatabase::OpenTableLC() or CCommsDatabase::OpenViewLC...() are not sufficient.

Note that OpenTableLC() and OpenViewLC...() have been withdrawn in CCommsDatabase and are now implemented in CCommsDatabaseBase.

DeprecatedThis method is deprecated from 9.1 and always returns/leaves with KErrNotSupported instead of describing past operation/parameters.

DeprecatedThis method is deprecated from 9.1 and always returns/leaves with KErrNotSupported instead of describing past operation/parameters.

Confirms changes made to a record, which were started by calls to one of InsertRecord() or UpdateRecord().

The record can be marked as hidden by passing ETrue as a parameter. By default, records are not hidden.

A call to one of either InsertRecord() or UpdateRecord() must have previously been made otherwise the function raises a CommsDbServer 4 panic.

Reads a boolean value located in a specific column within the current record and copies it into a specified value. The column is identified by the name supplied in the descriptor aColumn.

If the column in the current record has a NULL value and the table has a template record, then the value located in the corresponding column in that template record is read and copied into aValue.

If the column in the current record has a NULL value and the table does not have a template record, then the function leaves.

This read operation must not occur if any of the operations involved in inserting or updating a record are still outstanding, otherwise the function raises a CommsDbServer 10 panic. For example, the panic is raised if this function is called between calls to UpdateRecord() and PutRecordChanges().

This panic is also raised if this function is called after the view has been closed.

Gets the length of a specific column within the current record and copies it into a reference to an integer. The column is identified by the name supplied in the descriptor aColumn.

If the length of the column is zero and the table has a template record, then the length of the corresponding column in that template record is copied into aValue.

Null columns return 0; integers and bools return 1; strings return their length in characters.

This read operation must not occur if any of the operations involved in inserting or updating a record are still outstanding, otherwise the function raises a CommsDbServer 10 panic. For example, the panic is raised if this function is called between calls to UpdateRecord() and PutRecordChanges().

This panic is also raised if this function is called after the view has been closed.

Reads the MAXIMUM length of the contents of aColumn from the current record into aLength

Reads the long text located in a specific column within the current record and copies this text to a heap descriptor. The heap descriptor is allocated and its pointer returned by this function. The column is identified by the name supplied in the descriptor aColumn.

If the column in the current record has a NULL value and the table has a template record, then the long text located in the corresponding column in that template record is read and copied.

If the column in the current record has a NULL value and the table does not have a template record, then the length of the returned heap descriptor is zero and the descriptor contains no text.

While the text in columns retrieved by the ReadTextL() functions is limited in length, there is no restriction on the length of long text.

The HBufC* returned is left on the cleanup stack. The caller is responsible for calling CleanupStack::PopAndDestroy().

This read operation must not occur if any of the operations involved in inserting or updating a record are still outstanding, otherwise the function raises a CommsDbServer 10 panic. For example, the panic is raised if this function is called between calls to UpdateRecord() and PutRecordChanges().

This panic is also raised if this function is called after the view has been closed.

Reads narrow (ASCII) text located in a specific column within the current record and copies it into an 8 bit modifiable descriptor. The column is identified by the name supplied in the descriptor aColumn.

If the column in the current record has a NULL value and the table has a template record, then the text located in the corresponding column in that template record is read and copied into aValue.

If the column in the current record has a NULL value and the table does not have a template record, then the length of the descriptor aValue is set to zero and the descriptor contains no text.

The maximum length of text expected by this function is the value of the constant KCommsDbSvrMaxColumnNameLength. The maximum length of aValue supplied by the caller can, therefore, be the same.

This read operation must not occur if any of the operations involved in inserting or updating a record are still outstanding, otherwise the function raises a CommsDbServer 10 panic. For example, the panic is raised if this function is called between calls to UpdateRecord() and PutRecordChanges().
