GnomeDbCondition implements GnomeDbXmlStorage, GnomeDbRenderer and GnomeDbReferer.
This object represents a condition within a query. Usually there is one such object to express a WHERE condition and sometimes a GnomeDbJoin object con contain one as well to express a specific joinning condition.
There are two types of conditions: 'node' conditions (AND, OR, NOT), where there are one or more children condition and 'leaf' conditions, where there are only operands.

GObject* gnome_db_condition_new_from_sql (GnomeDbQuery *query, const gchar *sql_cond, GSList **targets, GError **error);

error : | location to store error, or NULL |
Returns : | a new GnomeDbCondition, or NULL if there was an error in sql_cond |
void gnome_db_condition_set_cond_type (GnomeDbCondition *condition, GnomeDbConditionType type);
Sets the kind of condition condition represents. If type implies a node condition and condition currently represents a leaf, or if type implies a leaf condition and condition currently represents a node, then condition is changed without any error.
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
type : |
GnomeDbConditionType gnome_db_condition_get_cond_type (GnomeDbCondition *condition);
Get the type of condition
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
Returns : | the type |
GSList* gnome_db_condition_get_children (GnomeDbCondition *condition);
Get a list of GnomeDbCondition objects which are children of condition
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
Returns : | a new list of GnomeDbCondition objects |
GnomeDbCondition* gnome_db_condition_get_parent (GnomeDbCondition *condition);
Get the GnomeDbCondition object which is parent of condition
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
Returns : | the parent object, or NULL |
GnomeDbCondition* gnome_db_condition_get_child_by_xml_id (GnomeDbCondition *condition, const gchar *xml_id);
Get a pointer to a GnomeDbCondition child from its XML Id
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
xml_id : | the XML Id of the requested GnomeDbCondition child |
Returns : | the GnomeDbCondition object, or NULL if not found |
gboolean gnome_db_condition_is_ancestor (GnomeDbCondition *condition, GnomeDbCondition *ancestor);
Tests if ancestor is an ancestor of condition
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
ancestor : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
Returns : | TRUE if ancestor is an ancestor of condition |
gboolean gnome_db_condition_is_leaf (GnomeDbCondition *condition);
Tells if condition is a leaf condition (not AND, OR, NOT, etc)
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
Returns : | TRUE if condition is a leaf condition |
gboolean gnome_db_condition_node_add_child (GnomeDbCondition *condition, GnomeDbCondition *child, GError **error);
Adds a child to condition; this is possible only if condition is a node type (AND, OR, etc)
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
child : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
error : | location to store error, or NULL |
Returns : | TRUE if no error occurred |
void gnome_db_condition_node_del_child (GnomeDbCondition *condition, GnomeDbCondition *child);
Removes a child from condition; this is possible only if condition is a node type (AND, OR, etc)
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
child : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
void gnome_db_condition_leaf_set_operator (GnomeDbCondition *condition, GnomeDbConditionOperator op, GnomeDbQfield *field);
condition : | |
op : | |
field : |
GnomeDbQfield* gnome_db_condition_leaf_get_operator (GnomeDbCondition *condition, GnomeDbConditionOperator op);
Get one of condition's operators.
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
op : | which oparetor is concerned |
Returns : | the requested GnomeDbQfield object |
GSList* gnome_db_condition_get_ref_objects_all (GnomeDbCondition *condition);
Get a complete list of the objects referenced by cond, including its descendants (unlike the gnome_db_referer_get_ref_objects() function applied to cond).
condition : | |
Returns : | a new list of referenced objects |
gboolean gnome_db_condition_represents_join (GnomeDbCondition *condition, GnomeDbTarget **target1, GnomeDbTarget **target2, gboolean *is_equi_join);
Tells if condition represents a join condition: it is a condition (within a GnomeDbQuery object) for which the only GnomeDbQfField fields taking part in the condition are from two distincts GnomeDbTarget objects. Such conditions can be assigned to a GnomeDbJoin object using the gnome_db_join_set_condition() or gnome_db_join_set_condition_from_fkcons() methods.
Additionnaly, if condition is a join condition, and if target1 and target2 are not NULL then they are set to point to the two GnomeDbTarget objects taking part in the condition. In this case target1 and target2 wil hold non NULL values.
In a similar way, if is_equi_join is not NULL, then it will be set to TRUE if the join condition is an equi join (that is the only comparison operator is the equal sign and there are only AND operators in the condition).
If condition is not a join condition, then target1, target2 and is_equi_join are left untouched.
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
target1 : | place to store one of the targets, or NULL |
target2 : | place to store the other target, or NULL |
is_equi_join : | place to store if the join is an equi join |
Returns : | TRUE if condition is a join condition |
gboolean gnome_db_condition_represents_join_strict (GnomeDbCondition *condition, GnomeDbTarget **target1, GnomeDbTarget **target2);
Tells if condition represents a strict join condition: it is a join condition as defined for the gnome_db_condition_represents_join() method, but where the condition is either "target1.field1=target2.field2" or a list of such conditions conjuncted by the AND operator.
If condition is not a join condition, then target1 and target2 are left untouched.
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
target1 : | place to store one of the targets, or NULL |
target2 : | place to store the other target, or NULL |
Returns : | TRUE if condition is a strict join condition |
GSList* gnome_db_condition_get_main_conditions (GnomeDbCondition *condition);
Makes a list of all the conditions which are always verified by condition when it returns TRUE when evaluated. Basically the returned list lists the atomic conditions which are AND'ed together to form the complex condition.
Examples: if condition is: --> "A and B" then the list will contains {A, B} --> "A and (B or C)" it will contain {A, B or C} --> "A and (B and not C)", it will contain {A, B, not C}
condition : | a GnomeDbCondition object |
Returns : | a new list of GnomeDbCondition objects |
