ODPI-C SODA Collection Cursor Functions

SODA collection cursor handles are used to represent SODA collection cursors. They are created by calling the function dpiSodaDb_getCollections() and are destroyed when the last reference is released by calling the function dpiSodaCollCursor_release().

SODA support in ODPI-C is in Preview status and should not be used in production. It will be supported with a future version of Oracle Client libraries.

int dpiSodaCollCursor_addRef(dpiSodaCollCursor \*cursor)

Adds a reference to the SODA collection cursor. This is intended for situations where a reference to the cursor needs to be maintained independently of the reference returned when the cursor was created.

The function returns DPI_SUCCESS for success and DPI_FAILURE for failure.

cursor [IN] – the cursor to which a reference is to be added. If the reference is NULL or invalid an error is returned.

int dpiSodaCollCursor_close(dpiSodaCollCursor \*cursor)

Closes the cursor and makes it unusable for further work immediately, rather than when the reference count reaches zero.

The function returns DPI_SUCCESS for success and DPI_FAILURE for failure.

cursor [IN] – a reference to the cursor which is to be closed. If the reference is NULL or invalid an error is returned.

int dpiSodaCollCursor_getNext(dpiSodaCollCursor \*cursor, uint32_t flags, dpiSodaColl \**coll)

Gets the next collection from the cursor, if there is one.

The function returns DPI_SUCCESS for success and DPI_FAILURE for failure.

cursor [IN] – the cursor from which the next collection is to be retrieved. The the reference is NULL or invalid an error is returned.

flags [IN] – one or more of the values from the enumeration dpiSodaFlags, OR’ed together. Only the value DPI_SODA_FLAGS_DEFAULT is currently supported.

coll [OUT] – a pointer to a reference to the next collection in the cursor, if one exists. If no further collections are available from the cursor, NULL is returned instead. The function dpiSodaColl_release() should be called when the collection is no longer required.

int dpiSodaCollCursor_release(dpiSodaCollCursor \*cursor)

Releases a reference to the SODA collection cursor. A count of the references to the cursor is maintained and when this count reaches zero, the memory associated with the cursor is freed.

The function returns DPI_SUCCESS for success and DPI_FAILURE for failure.

cursor [IN] – the cursor from which a reference is to be released. If the reference is NULL or invalid an error is returned.
