The SELECT statement allows you to retrieve information from the database. When you execute a SELECT statement, the PreparedStatement.ExecuteQuery method returns a ResultSet object. See ExecuteQuery method.
Declare the required variables using the following code:
ULPreparedStatement * prepStmt; ULResultSet * resultSet; |
Prepare a SQL statement for execution.
The following code prepares a SELECT statement for execution:
prepStmt = conn->PrepareStatement("SELECT MyColumn1 FROM MyTable"); |
Check for errors when preparing the statement.
For example, the following code is useful when checking for SQL syntax errors:
if( prepStmt == NULL ) { const ULError * ulerr; ulerr = conn->GetLastError(); // write code to handle the error return; } |
Execute the SQL and return a result set object that can be used to move the results of the query.
resultSet = prepStmt->ExecuteQuery(); if( resultSet == NULL ) { const ULError * ulerr; ulerr = conn->GetLastError(); // write code to handle the error prepStmt->Close(); return; } |
Traverse the rows by calling the Next method. Store the result as a string and store them in a butter.
The Next method moves to the next row of the result set. The ULResultSet object is positioned on a row if the call returns true; otherwise, if the call returns false, all the rows have been traversed.
while( resultSet->Next() ) { char buffer[ 100 ]; resultSet->GetString( 1, buffer, 100 ); printf( "MyColumn = %s\n", buffer ); } |
Clean up the prepared statement and result set object resources.
The prepared statement object should not accessed after the Close method is called.
resultSet->Close(); prepStmt->Close(); |
