Detailed Description

The Db base class.

This /ref Db class provides the base database implementation.

This is a class with very little overhead - a single pointer - that is a 'smart pointer' (i.e. will automatically get destroyed when the last reference is removed).

To keep the overhead down this class should have no virtual functions.

Constructor & Destructor Documentation

Db() [1/2]

RDM_CPP::Db::Db	(	void	)
throw	(
	)

Db Default Constructor.

The default constructor, copy constructor, assignment operator, and destructor implement a smart pointer for the /ref Db interface and it's generated subclasses. The number of references to the underlying implementation object will be maintained. When the number of references to an implementation object is down to zero the object will be released.

The default constructor will initialize the number of references to the underlying implementation object to one.

Db() [2/2]

RDM_CPP::Db::Db	(	const Db &	db	)
throw	(
	)

Db Copy Constructor.

The default constructor, copy constructor, assignment operator, and destructor implement a smart pointer for the /ref Db interface and it's generated subclasses. The number of references to the underlying implementation object will be maintained. When the number of references to an implementation object is down to zero the object will be released.

The copy constructor will increment the number of references to the underlying implementation object by one.

~Db()

RDM_CPP::Db::~Db ( )

Db destructor.

The default constructor, copy constructor, assignment operator, and destructor implement a smart pointer for the /ref Db interface and it's generated subclasses. The number of references to the underlying implementation object will be maintained. When the number of references to an implementation object is down to zero the object will be released.

The destructor will decrement the number of references to the underlying implementation object by one.

Member Function Documentation

AlterCatalog()

Db RDM_CPP::Db::AlterCatalog ( const char *const catalog ) const

Alter a catalog with an allocated database.

This method alters a catalog with a /ref Db.

BuildKeys()

void RDM_CPP::Db::BuildKeys ( const char * optString )

Rebuild keys.

This method rebuilds a keys for the database. Rebuilding keys is a two-step process. First, the index is reinitialized. Then, each row that has a key stored in the key file is sequentially read from the database and the key inserted into the index.

This utility can be used to regenerate an index when dbcheck reports an inconsistency.

Locking Requirements: This method requires exclusive access to the database (opened in exclusive mode)

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID, eEXCLUSIVE, eNOMEMORY, eREADONLY)

Parameters

[in] optString The BuildKeys option string

ClearCache()

void RDM_CPP::Db::ClearCache ( void ) const

Clear the runtime cache.

Close()

Db RDM_CPP::Db::Close ( ) const

Close the database.

CompileCatalog()

Db RDM_CPP::Db::CompileCatalog ( const char *const catalog = NULL ) const

Compile a catalog and associate it with an allocated database.

This method compiles a catalog and associates it with a /ref Db. The /ref Db must not have a database open. When the database is opened with Open() method the associated catalog will be used. If a catalog is found on the TFS then the specified catalog and the stored catalog will be compared to ensure that they are identical.

CompileCatalogFromFile()

Db RDM_CPP::Db::CompileCatalogFromFile ( const char *const file ) const

Compile a catalog stored on file and associate it with an allocated database.

This method compiles a catalog stored on file and associates it with a /ref Db. The /ref Db must not have a database open. When the database is opened with Open() method the associated catalog will be used. If a catalog is found on the TFS then the specified catalog and the stored catalog will be compared to ensure that they are identical.

CreateNewPackFile()

void RDM_CPP::Db::CreateNewPackFile ( ) const

Create a new pack file.

This method will create a new pack file.

Locking Requirements: None

Exceptions

rdm_exception

DeleteAllRows() [1/2]

void RDM_CPP::Db::DeleteAllRows ( RDM_TABLE_ID tableId ) const

Removes all rows from a table.

This method removes all rows from the specified table

This method must be the only change operations in an update transaction. An exception will be thrown if an update transaction is not active or if any other change operations have occurred in the update transaction prior to calling the DeleteAllRows() method.

Locking Requirements: An Update transaction with locks on the table (and all related tables)

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID, eNOSTARTUPDATE)

DeleteAllRows() [2/2]

void RDM_CPP::Db::DeleteAllRows ( void ) const

Removes all rows from all tables.

This method removes all rows from all database tables.

This method must be the only change operations in an update transaction. An exception will be thrown if an update transaction is not active or if any other change operations have occurred in the update transaction prior to calling the DeleteAllRows() method.

Locking Requirements: An Update transaction with locks on all tables in the database

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID, eNOSTARTUPDATE)

Drop()

void RDM_CPP::Db::Drop ( )

Drop an open database.

Encrypt()

void RDM_CPP::Db::Encrypt	(	RDM_ENCRYPT	enc,
		const char *	optString
	)		const

Encrypt a database.

This method can encrypt, decrypt, and re-encrypt a Db

When re-encrypting a database you can choose whether to do a full or quick re-encryption. A quick re-encryption will just change the passcode used for encrypting the randomly generated key used to encrypt the actual database contents. In this case the database contents do not need to be read and rewritten so the operation can be performed very quickly.

A full re-encryption will generate a new internal encryption key and will require each database page to be read, decrypted, re-encrypted, and rewritten to the file. This can be a lengthy operation for very large database images.

To decrypt an encrypted database pass in a NULL encryption context (enc).

Locking Requirements: This function requires that the database be opened in exclusive mode

Exceptions

rdm_exception

End()

void RDM_CPP::Db::End ( void ) const

End a transaction.

This method ends an update, read or snapshot transaction.

If the current transaction is an update all changes since the StartUpdate() will be written to the database. The changes are first written to the log file to support recovery and are then written to the database by the TFS.

End() frees all locked files for the database.

Locking Requirements: None

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID)

EndRollback()

void RDM_CPP::Db::EndRollback ( void ) const

Rollback a transaction.

The method discards all database changes made between the call to StartUpdate() and the call to EndRollback().

EndRollback() frees all locked tables for the database.

Locking Requirements: None

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID)

Export() [1/2]

void RDM_CPP::Db::Export ( const char * optString ) const

Export database into text files.

This method exports data from the database to ASCII text files. The method writes all data from each table to a separate file; it is the table name with file extension ".txt". If a table name is specified in the parameter structure then only that table's rows are exported. The created files will consist of one text line per row with sep_char (default ',') characters separating the columns.

The Export method has two ways of printing extended ASCII characters to the output files. The default is to write out the octal value. Since the Import method cannot handle this, the extended option can be used to print the extended ASCII character as the character. For example, ASCII 2 would be printed as "\002" without the extended and as a smiley face with the extended option.

See dbexp for full details

Locking Requirements: A Snapshot transaction or a Read transaction with locks on all the database tables that will be exported

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID, eNOTLOCKED, eNOMEMORY)

RDM Export Library for C++. Linker option:

    -lrdmcppexport

Get the internal RDM_DB.

Returns: The internal RDM_DB

GetEncrypt()

RDM_ENCRYPT RDM_CPP::Db::GetEncrypt ( void ) const

Get the encryption context associated with the Db.

This method allows the application to retrive the encryption context associated with a /ref Db object. It is possible that multiple encryption contexts are associated with a /ref Db object. If that is the case this function will return the most recently associated encryption context.

GetInfo() [1/2]

void RDM_CPP::Db::GetInfo	(	const char *	key,
		char *	value,
		size_t	bytesIn,
		size_t *	bytesOut = `NULL`
	)		const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

GetInfo() [2/2]

std::string RDM_CPP::Db::GetInfo ( std::string key ) const

Get database information into a string.

This function retrieves database information into a string value. The key parameter accepts the key for the information to get.

GetLockStatus()

RDM_LOCK_STATUS RDM_CPP::Db::GetLockStatus ( RDM_TABLE_ID tableId ) const

Get the current lock status of a table.

This method returns the current lock status of the specified table. If the /ref Db does not have a lock on the table then the status will be RDM_LOCK_FREE regardless of whether any other sessions have the table locked. This function allows the user to know if the /ref Db currently has access to the table.

GetMemoryUsage()

void RDM_CPP::Db::GetMemoryUsage	(	uint64_t &	systemCurr,
		uint64_t &	systemMax,
		uint64_t &	userCurr,
		uint64_t &	userMax
	)		const

Get database memory usage information.

This method retrieves database memory usage information

The memory usage is split between system memory which is memory that is used by the engine and user data which is memory used for storing the user data (rows, keys, blobs, schema, etc.).

For a disk based database the user memory usage will always be 0 as the data is stored on disk and not in-memory.

Both disk and in-memory databases require system memory.

Parameters

[out]	systemCurr	The current amount of system memory in use for the database (does not include user data - rows, keys, etc.)
[out]	systemMax	The maximum total amount of system memory in use for the database (does not include user data - rows, keys, etc.)
[out]	userCurr	The current amount of memory for user data in the database
[out]	userMax	The maximum amount of memory for user data in the database

GetOption() [1/2]

void RDM_CPP::Db::GetOption	(	const char *	option,
		char *	value,
		size_t	bytesIn,
		size_t *	bytesOut = `NULL`
	)		const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

GetOption() [2/2]

std::string RDM_CPP::Db::GetOption ( std::string option ) const

Get a single database option into a string.

This function retrieves a single database option into a string value. The key parameter accepts the key for the option to get.

Options are defined using keys or properties. Every key has a name and a value, delimited by an equals sign (=). The key name appears to the left of the equals sign. Key names are not case-sensitive. Unless otherwise noted, values are not case-sensitive.

Key	Value Description
api_encoding	Specify string encoding for data retrieval.
timeout	Specify default lock timeout in seconds.
time_zone	Specify current time zone.
storage	Specify database storage mode.
cache_size	Specify cache size.
collate	Specify database UTF8 collation.
error_format	Specify error message format.
durability	Specify database transaction safety level.
pack_file_size	Specify pack file maximum size.
db_size	Specify the maximum database size allocation.
vacuum_percentage	Specify the vacuum trigger level for pack files.
vacuum_chunk_size	Specify the vacuum write size for pack files.

GetReturnCode()

RDM_RETCODE RDM_CPP::Db::GetReturnCode ( ) const

Get current return code value.

The /ref Db object does not throw exceptions for status codes. This function allows you to get the return code from the last method call. If the previous method call did not throw and exception this will either be sOKAY or a status code value. If the previous method call did throw an exception this will be the error code related to that exception.

Returns: The current RDM_RETCODE value

GetTFS()

TFS RDM_CPP::Db::GetTFS ( void )

Get the TFS object associated with the Db.

Each active /ref Db is associated with a TFS object. This method allows a user to get a reference to the TFS object associated with the source /ref Db.

Returns: The TFS object associated with this /ref Db

Locking Requirements: None

Exceptions

rdm_exception

GetTransactionStatus()

RDM_TRANS_STATUS RDM_CPP::Db::GetTransactionStatus ( void ) const

Get the current database transaction status.

Returns: A RDM_TRANS_STATUS value

Locking Requirements: None

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID)

Import() [1/2]

void RDM_CPP::Db::Import ( const char * optString ) const

Import data from text files.

This method imports data into the database from ASCII text files. The import functionality is simple enough to allow great quantities of raw ASCII data to be entered into an RDM database with very little specification. With more complex requirements, ImportXML can be instructed to perform mappings between the input data and RDM tables and to make set connections based upon matching column values.

All instructions to Import are placed into a text file in the form of an import specification language (ISL). An ISL specification identifies the database and the files containing ASCII data to be imported. It also contains mappings between the ASCII data fields and the columns.

Locking Requirements: An Update transaction with locks on all tables that will be imported

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID, eNOSTARTUPDATE, eNOTLOCKED, sDUPLICATE)

RDM Export Library for C++. Linker option:

    -lrdmcppexport

LoadCatalog()

Db RDM_CPP::Db::LoadCatalog ( const char *const catalog = NULL ) const

Load a catalog and associate it with an allocated database.

This method loads a catalog and associates it with a /ref Db. The /ref Db must not have a database open. When the database is opened with Open() method the associated catalog will be used. If a catalog is found on the TFS then the specified catalog and the stored catalog will be compared to ensure that they are identical.

LoadCatalogFromFile()

Db RDM_CPP::Db::LoadCatalogFromFile ( const char *const file ) const

Load a catalog stored on file and associate it with an allocated database.

This method loads a catalog stored on file and associates it with a /ref Db. The /ref Db must not have a database open. When the database is opened with Open() method the associated catalog will be used. If a catalog is found on the TFS then the specified catalog and the stored catalog will be compared to ensure that they are identical.

Open() [1/2]

Db RDM_CPP::Db::Open	(	const char *	name,
		RDM_OPEN_MODE	mode,
		const char *const	catalog
	)		const

Open the database.

Examples: cpp01Example_main.cpp, cpp35Example_main.cpp, tfscpp/tfsAlloc.cpp, and tfscpp/tfsAllocDefault.cpp.

Open() [2/2]

Db RDM_CPP::Db::Open	(	const char *	name,
		RDM_OPEN_MODE	mode = `RDM_OPEN_SHARED`
	)		const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

operator=()

Db& RDM_CPP::Db::operator=	(	const Db &	db	)
throw	(
	)

Db assignment operator.

The default constructor, copy constructor, assignment operator, and destructor implement a smart pointer for the /ref Db interface and it's generated subclasses. The number of references to the underlying implementation object will be maintained. When the number of references to an implementation object is down to zero the object will be released.

The assignment operator will increment the number of references to the underlying implementation object by one.

Persist()

void RDM_CPP::Db::Persist ( void ) const

Persist an in-memory database.

Precommit()

void RDM_CPP::Db::Precommit ( void ) const

Precommit a database transaction.

This methods prepares to commit a transaction by writing to the database log file all changes made since the most recent call to StartUpdate(). Following soon after this call, a End() should be called to finally commit the transaction, or EndRollback() to throw it away. The difference between calling Precommit prior to End() is that all file I/O necessary to prepare the transaction will be done during the Precommit, and the End() has a minimal task, essentially flipping a switch to commit the prepared transaction.

This call does not change the status of locks, so it shouldn't be held in this state indefinitely.

No updates or reads should be performed on the database after the Precommit until the end of the transaction.

Locking Requirements: None

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID)

RebuildIdIndex()

SetEncrypt()

void RDM_CPP::Db::SetEncrypt ( RDM_ENCRYPT enc ) const

Add an encryption context to the Db.

This method will associate an encryption context to a /ref Db. When a database is opened the system will use the encryption contexts associated with the /ref Db to attempt to open the database.

Typically you would associate the encryption context to a handle prior to opening a database.

You can remove all encryption contexts associated with the /ref Db by passing in a NULL encryption context to this method.

Transaction RDM_CPP::Db::StartSnapshot	(	const RDM_TABLE_ID	tableIds[] = `NULL`,
		uint32_t	num = `0`
	)		const

Create a static snapshot of the database.

Take a snapshot of the databases for reading data from the database. You are not allowed to combine this method with StartRead() or StartSnapshot(). Call End() when you are done reading.

See also: Transactions and Locking

Locking Requirements: None.

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID)

Parameters

[in]	tableIds	An array of table identifiers to be included in the snapshot
[in]	num	The number of tables in the snapshot

StartUpdate() [1/2]

Transaction RDM_CPP::Db::StartUpdate	(	const RDM_TABLE_ID	writeTableIds[],
		uint32_t	numWriteTableIds,
		const RDM_TABLE_ID	readTableIds[] = `NULL`,
		uint32_t	numReadTableIds = `0`
	)		const

Begin updating a database.

Parameters

writeTableIds	An array of table ids to be write locked
numWriteTableIds	The number of tables to be locked
readTableIds	An array of table ids to be read locked
numReadTableIds	The number of tables to be locked

Use this method before making any updates to the database. Specify the tables you want access to or RDM_LOCK_ALL for every table. You are not allowed to combine this method with StartRead(). Call End() when you are finished with the update

If the TableIds parameter is NULL terminated there is no need to specify the number of items in the array in the num parameter. However if the TableIds parameter is not NULL terminated an exception can occur if the correct value for num is not provided.

Locking Requirements: None.

Exceptions

rdm_exception (eINVDBID, eUNAVAIL, eINVIDENTIFIER, eREADONLY)

Parameters

[in]	writeTableIds	An array of table identifiers to be read locked
[in]	numWriteTableIds	The number of tables to be write-locked
[in]	readTableIds	An array of table identifiers to be read locked
[in]	numReadTableIds	The number of tables to be read-locked

StartUpdate() [2/2]

Transaction RDM_CPP::Db::StartUpdate	(	const RDM_TABLE_ID	writeTableIds[] = `NULL`,
		const RDM_TABLE_ID	readTableIds[] = `NULL`,
		uint32_t	numReadTableIds = `0`
	)		const

This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It differs from the above function only in what argument(s) it accepts.

Parameters

[in]	writeTableIds	An array of table identifiers to be read locked
[in]	readTableIds	An array of table identifiers to be read locked
[in]	numReadTableIds	The number of tables to be read-locked

TableSetMaxRows()

void RDM_CPP::Db::TableSetMaxRows	(	RDM_TABLE_ID	tableId,
		uint32_t	maxRows
	)		const

Set the maximum number of rows for a table.

This method set the maximum number of rows for a table

Locking Requirements: None

Exceptions

rdm_exception

Parameters

[in]	tableId	The table id
[in]	maxRows	The new maximum number of rows for the table

TriggersOff()

void RDM_CPP::Db::TriggersOff ( void ) const

Turn off the processing of triggers.

TriggersOn()

void RDM_CPP::Db::TriggersOn ( void ) const

Turn on the processing of triggers.

TriggersStatus()

RDM_TRIGGERS_STATUS RDM_CPP::Db::TriggersStatus ( void ) const

Check the triggers status.

Vacuum()

void RDM_CPP::Db::Vacuum ( const char * optString ) const

Vacuum a database.

This method can vacuum a database.

When vacuuming a database you move database objects into the current pack file. When earlier pack files no longer contain any database objects they can be deleted. This is the only method available to reclaim disk space.
