Type Documentation

enum QSql::Location

This enum type describes special SQL navigation locations:

Constant	Value	Description
QSql::BeforeFirstRow	-1	Before the first record.
QSql::AfterLastRow	-2	After the last record.

See also QSqlQuery::at().

enum QSql::NumericalPrecisionPolicy

Numerical values in a database can have precisions greater than their corresponding C++ types. This enum lists the policies for representing such values in the application.

Constant	Value	Description
QSql::LowPrecisionInt32	0x01	Force 32bit integer values. In case of floating point numbers, the fractional part is silently discarded.
QSql::LowPrecisionInt64	0x02	Force 64bit integer values. In case of floating point numbers, the fractional part is silently discarded.
QSql::LowPrecisionDouble	0x04	Force double values. This is the default policy.
QSql::HighPrecision	0	Strings will be used to preserve precision.

Note: The actual behaviour if an overflow occurs is driver specific. The Oracle database just returns an error in this case.

enum QSql::ParamTypeFlagflags QSql::ParamType

This enum is used to specify the type of a bind parameter.

Constant	Value	Description
QSql::In	0x00000001	The bind parameter is used to put data into the database.
QSql::Out	0x00000002	The bind parameter is used to receive data from the database.
QSql::InOut	In | Out	The bind parameter is used to put data into the database; it will be overwritten with output data on executing a query.
QSql::Binary	0x00000004	This must be OR'd with one of the other flags if you want to indicate that the data being transferred is raw binary data.

The ParamType type is a typedef for QFlags<ParamTypeFlag>. It stores an OR combination of ParamTypeFlag values.

enum QSql::TableType

This enum type describes types of SQL tables.

Constant	Value	Description
QSql::Tables	0x01	All the tables visible to the user.
QSql::SystemTables	0x02	Internal tables used by the database.
QSql::Views	0x04	All the views visible to the user.
QSql::AllTables	0xff	All of the above.
