SQLBindCol
Function
SQLBindCol is used to associate (bind) columns in a result set to an application data buffer.
Prototype
1 2 3 4 5 6 | SQLRETURN SQLBindCol(SQLHSTMT StatementHandle, SQLUSMALLINT ColumnNumber, SQLSMALLINT TargetType, SQLPOINTER TargetValuePtr, SQLLEN BufferLength, SQLLEN *StrLen_or_IndPtr); |
Parameter
Keyword |
Description |
---|---|
StatementHandle |
Statement handle. |
ColumnNumber |
Number of the column to be bound. The column number starts with 0 and increases in ascending order. Column 0 is the bookmark column. If no bookmark column is set, column numbers start at 1. |
TargetType |
The C data type in the buffer. |
TargetValuePtr |
Output parameter: pointer to the buffer bound with the column. The SQLFetch function returns data in the buffer. If TargetValuePtr is null, StrLen_or_IndPtr is a valid value. |
BufferLength |
Size of the TargetValuePtr buffer in bytes available to store the column data. |
StrLen_or_IndPtr |
Output parameter: pointer to the length or indicator of the buffer. If StrLen_or_IndPtr is null, no length or indicator is used. |
Return Values
- SQL_SUCCESS indicates that the call succeeded.
- SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO indicates some warning information is displayed.
- SQL_ERROR indicates major errors, such as memory allocation and connection failures.
- SQL_INVALID_HANDLE indicates that invalid handles were called. Values returned by other APIs are similar to the preceding values.
Precautions
If SQLBindCol returns SQL_ERROR or SQL_SUCCESS_WITH_INFO, the application can then call SQLGetDiagRec, with HandleType and Handle set to SQL_HANDLE_STMT and StatementHandle, respectively, to obtain the SQLSTATE value. The SQLSTATE value provides the detailed function calling information.
