Deallocate a CS_COMMAND structure.
CS_RETCODE ct_cmd_drop(cmd) CS_COMMAND *cmd;
A pointer to a CS_COMMAND structure.
ct_cmd_drop returns the following values:
Return value |
Meaning |
|---|---|
CS_SUCCEED |
The routine completed successfully. |
CS_FAIL |
The routine failed. |
CS_BUSY |
An asynchronous operation is already pending for this connection. See “Asynchronous programming”. |
ct_cmd_drop returns CS_FAIL if:
*cmd has an active command. A command that has been initialized but not yet sent is considered to be active.
*cmd has an open cursor.
*cmd has pending results.
if ((retcode = ct_cmd_drop(cmd)) != CS_SUCCEED)
{
ex_error("DoCompute: ct_cmd_drop() failed");
return retcode;
}
This code excerpt is from the compute.c example program.
A CS_COMMAND structure is a control structure that a Client-Library application uses to send commands to a server and process the results of those commands.
Once a command structure has been deallocated, it cannot be reused. To allocate a new CS_COMMAND structure, an application can call ct_cmd_alloc.
Before deallocating a command structure, an application should cancel any active commands, process or cancel any pending results, and close and deallocate any open cursors on the command structure.
