n_resulttsql() - Control the behavior of SQL INSERT, DELETE

SYNOPSIS

#include "tstone.h"

int n_resulttsql(ts,flag)
TSQL   *ts;
int     flag;


DESCRIPTION
n_resulttsql() controls the reporting of resultant rows from SQL INSERT and DELETE statements. By default INSERT and DELETE will not report back the affected rows. Calling this function with flag set to 1 will enable the reporting of affected rows. You then must use n_gettsql() to retrieve rows as with SELECTs. n_resulttsql() must be called before n_settsql().

Pass flag as 0 to disable report of the affected rows.

SELECT statements always return matching rows, regardless of this setting. n_dotsql() is unaffected by this call. Results are always suppressed.

n_resulttsql() returns the previous flag setting. There is no error return.


EXAMPLE

TSQL   *ts;
long    when;
long    date;
char   *query;

   ...
                                 /* delete rows without seeing them */
   if(n_settsql(ts,"delete from history where Date<%lu;"))
   {
      when=time((time_t *)NULL);                /* get current time */
      when-=7*86400;                             /* subtract 7 days */
      n_exectsql(ts,when);                      /* perform deletion */
   }
   ...
                                        /* delete rows and see them */
   n_resulttsql(ts,1);
   if(n_settsql(ts,"delete from history where Date<%lu;"))
   {
      when=time((time_t *)NULL);                /* get current time */
      when-=7*86400;                             /* subtract 7 days */
      if(n_exectsql(ts,when))                   /* perform deletion */
      {
         while(n_gettsql(ts,"%lu %s",&date,&query);
         {
            printf("%lu %s\n",date,query);
            free(query);
         }
      }
   }
