Implemented Interfaces

GdaVirtualConnection implements GdaLockable.

Includes

#include <virtual/gda-ldap-connection.h>

Description

This is a base virtual class for all virtual connection implementations.

Functions

gda_virtual_connection_open ()

GdaConnection *
gda_virtual_connection_open (GdaVirtualProvider *virtual_provider,
                             GError **error);

Creates and opens a new virtual connection using the virtual_provider provider. The returned value is a new GdaVirtualConnection which needs to be used to actually add some contents to the virtual connection.

Parameters

virtual_provider

a GdaVirtualProvider object

 

error

a place to store errors, or NULL

 

Returns

a new GdaConnection object, or NULL if an error occurred


gda_virtual_connection_open_extended ()

GdaConnection *
gda_virtual_connection_open_extended (GdaVirtualProvider *virtual_provider,
                                      GdaConnectionOptions options,
                                      GError **error);

Creates and opens a new virtual connection using the virtual_provider provider. If options contains the GDA_CONNECTION_OPTIONS_THREAD_ISOLATED flag, then the returned connection will be a thread wrapped connection, and the actual (wrapped) virtual connection can be obtained through the "gda-virtual-connection" user property (use g_object_get_data() to get it).

The returned value is a new GdaVirtualConnection which needs to be used to actually add some contents to the virtual connection.

Parameters

virtual_provider

a GdaVirtualProvider object

 

options

a set of options to specify the new connection

 

error

a place to store errors, or NULL

 

Returns

a new GdaConnection object, or NULL if an error occurred


gda_virtual_connection_internal_set_provider_data ()

void
gda_virtual_connection_internal_set_provider_data
                               (GdaVirtualConnection *vcnc,
                                gpointer data,
                                GDestroyNotify destroy_func);

Note: calling this function more than once will not make it call destroy_func on any previously set opaque data , you'll have to do it yourself.

Parameters

vcnc

a GdaConnection object

 

data

an opaque structure, known only to the provider for which vcnc is opened

 

destroy_func

function to call when the connection closes and data needs to be destroyed

 

gda_virtual_connection_internal_get_provider_data ()

gpointer
gda_virtual_connection_internal_get_provider_data
                               (GdaVirtualConnection *vcnc);

Get the opaque pointer previously set using gda_virtual_connection_internal_set_provider_data(). If it's not set, then add a connection event and returns NULL

Parameters

vcnc

a GdaConnection object

 

Returns

the pointer to the opaque structure set using gda_virtual_connection_internal_set_provider_data()

Types and Values

struct GdaVirtualConnection

struct GdaVirtualConnection;
