Comparisons

You can compare results for equality. Beware: this is a very strict, dumb comparison. The smallest difference between two results (such as a string "Foo" versus a string "foo") will make them unequal.

Detailed Description

Result set containing data returned by a query or command.

This behaves as a container (as defined by the C++ standard library) and provides random access const iterators to iterate over its rows. A row can also be accessed by indexing a result R by the row's zero-based number:

for (result::size_type i=0; i < std::size(R); ++i) Process(R[i]);

Result sets in libpqxx are lightweight, reference-counted wrapper objects which are relatively small and cheap to copy. Think of a result object as a "smart pointer" to an underlying result set.

Warning
The result set that a result object points to is not thread-safe. If you copy a result object, it still refers to the same underlying result set. So never copy, destroy, query, or otherwise access a result while another thread may be copying, destroying, querying, or otherwise accessing the same result set–even if it is doing so through a different result object!

Member Function Documentation

◆ affected_rows()

pqxx::result::size_type pqxx::result::affected_rows ( ) const

If command was INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE: number of affected rows

Returns
Number of affected rows if last command was INSERT, UPDATE, or DELETE; zero for all other commands.

◆ at()

pqxx::row pqxx::result::at ( size_type  i) const

Index a row by number, but check that the row number is valid.

Referenced by pqxx::connection::get_variable().

◆ back()

pqxx::result::reference pqxx::result::back ( ) const
noexcept

◆ begin()

pqxx::result::const_iterator pqxx::result::begin ( ) const
noexcept

◆ capacity()

size_type pqxx::result::capacity ( ) const
noexcept

◆ cbegin()

pqxx::result::const_iterator pqxx::result::cbegin ( ) const
noexcept

◆ cend()

const_result_iterator pqxx::result::cend ( ) const
noexcept

◆ clear()

void pqxx::result::clear ( )
noexcept

Let go of the result's data.

Use this if you need to deallocate the result data earlier than you can destroy the result object itself.

Multiple result objects can refer to the same set of underlying data. The underlying data will be deallocated once all result objects that refer to it are cleared or destroyed.

◆ column_name()

char const * pqxx::result::column_name ( row_size_type  number) const

Name of column with this number (throws exception if it doesn't exist)

Referenced by pqxx::row::column_number(), and pqxx::field::name().

◆ column_number()

pqxx::row::size_type pqxx::result::column_number ( zview  name) const

Number of given column (throws exception if it doesn't exist).

References pqxx::zview::c_str().

Referenced by pqxx::row::column_number().

◆ column_table() [1/2]

pqxx::oid pqxx::result::column_table ( row_size_type  col_num) const

What table did this column come from?

References pqxx::oid_none.

Referenced by pqxx::row::column_table(), and pqxx::field::table().

◆ column_table() [2/2]

oid pqxx::result::column_table ( zview  col_name) const

What table did this column come from?

◆ column_type() [1/2]

pqxx::oid pqxx::result::column_type ( row_size_type  col_num) const

Return column's type, as an OID from the system catalogue.

References pqxx::oid_none.

Referenced by pqxx::row::column_type(), and pqxx::field::type().

◆ column_type() [2/2]

oid pqxx::result::column_type ( zview  col_name) const

Return column's type, as an OID from the system catalogue.

◆ columns()

pqxx::row::size_type pqxx::result::columns ( ) const
noexcept

Number of columns in result.

◆ crbegin()

pqxx::result::const_reverse_iterator pqxx::result::crbegin ( ) const

◆ crend()

pqxx::result::const_reverse_iterator pqxx::result::crend ( ) const

◆ empty()

bool pqxx::result::empty ( ) const
noexcept

◆ end()

const_result_iterator pqxx::result::end ( ) const
noexcept

◆ front()

pqxx::result::reference pqxx::result::front ( ) const
noexcept

◆ inserted_oid()

pqxx::oid pqxx::result::inserted_oid ( ) const

If command was INSERT of 1 row, return oid of inserted row.

Returns
Identifier of inserted row if exactly one row was inserted, or oid_none otherwise.

◆ iter()

template<typename... TYPE>
auto pqxx::result::iter ( ) const

Iterate rows, reading them directly into a tuple of "TYPE...".

Converts the fields to values of the given respective types.

Use this only with a ranged "for" loop. The iteration produces std::tuple<TYPE...> which you can "unpack" to a series of auto variables.

◆ operator!=()

bool pqxx::result::operator!= ( result const &  rhs) const
noexcept

Compare two results for inequality.

◆ operator=()

result& pqxx::result::operator= ( result const &  rhs)
defaultnoexcept

Assign one result to another.

Copying results is cheap: it copies only smart pointers, but the actual data stays in the same place.

◆ operator==()

bool pqxx::result::operator== ( result const &  rhs) const
noexcept

Compare two results for equality.

◆ operator[]()

pqxx::row pqxx::result::operator[] ( size_type  i) const
noexcept

Index a row by number.

◆ query()

std::string const & pqxx::result::query ( ) const
noexcept

Query that produced this result, if available (empty string otherwise)

◆ rbegin()

pqxx::result::const_reverse_iterator pqxx::result::rbegin ( ) const

◆ rend()

pqxx::result::const_reverse_iterator pqxx::result::rend ( ) const

◆ size()

pqxx::result::size_type pqxx::result::size ( ) const
noexcept

◆ swap()

void pqxx::result::swap ( result rhs)
noexcept

Exchange two result values in an exception-safe manner.

If the swap fails, the two values will be exactly as they were before.

The swap is not necessarily thread-safe.

Referenced by pqxx::row::swap().

◆ table_column() [1/2]

pqxx::row::size_type pqxx::result::table_column ( row_size_type  col_num) const

What column in its table did this column come from?

References pqxx::to_string().

Referenced by pqxx::field::table_column(), and pqxx::row::table_column().

◆ table_column() [2/2]

row_size_type pqxx::result::table_column ( zview  col_name) const

What column in its table did this column come from?
