Examples
Example 1
Code Block |
---|
|
string [] results = sql("datasourceName", "select project_id from project_lookaside where project_code='" + project + "'");
//Note: this example is open to SQL injection if 'project' is not the standard issue project (derived) but a variable supplied by user. Take care. |
Example 2
Code Block |
---|
|
string [] results = sql("datasourceName", "select project_id from project_lookaside where project_code=?", project);
//this is better. No sql injection possible. |
Example 3
It is tedious to iterate over a result in its flat form. The better way is to do it like this:
Code Block |
---|
|
struct Person {
string fName;
string lName;
number age;
}
Person [] results = sql ("datasourceName", "SELECT fName, lName, age FROM person WHERE group_member = 'Y'");
//checks to see if there are results there are skipped for brevity, but
//now you can iterate over and use the dot notation, and 'age' is really a number.
string firstResult = results[0].fName + " " + results[0].lName + " " + results[0].age; |
