ODPI-C SODA Document Cursor Functions

SODA document cursor handles are used to represent SODA document cursors. They are created by calling the function dpiSodaColl_find() and are destroyed when the last reference is released by calling the function dpiSodaDocCursor_release().

See this tracking issue for known issues with SODA.

int dpiSodaDocCursor_addRef(dpiSodaDocCursor *cursor)

Adds a reference to the SODA document cursor. This is intended for situations where a reference to the cursor needs to be maintained independently of the reference returned when the cursor was created.

The function returns DPI_SUCCESS for success and DPI_FAILURE for failure.

cursor [IN] – the cursor to which a reference is to be added. If the reference is NULL or invalid, an error is returned.

int dpiSodaDocCursor_close(dpiSodaDocCursor *cursor)

Closes the cursor and makes it unusable for further work immediately, rather than when the reference count reaches zero.

The function returns DPI_SUCCESS for success and DPI_FAILURE for failure.

cursor [IN] – a reference to the cursor which is to be closed. If the reference is NULL or invalid, an error is returned.

int dpiSodaDocCursor_getNext(dpiSodaDocCursor *cursor, uint32_t flags, dpiSodaDoc **doc)

Gets the next document from the cursor, if there is one.

The function returns DPI_SUCCESS for success and DPI_FAILURE for failure.

cursor [IN] – the cursor from which the next document is to be retrieved. The the reference is NULL or invalid, an error is returned.

flags [IN] – one or more of the values from the enumeration dpiSodaFlags, OR’ed together. Only the value DPI_SODA_FLAGS_DEFAULT is currently supported.

doc [OUT] – a pointer to a reference to the next document in the cursor, if one exists. If no further documents are available from the cursor, NULL is returned instead. The function dpiSodaDoc_release() should be called when the document is no longer required.

int dpiSodaDocCursor_release(dpiSodaDocCursor *cursor)

Releases a reference to the SODA document cursor. A count of the references to the cursor is maintained and when this count reaches zero, the memory associated with the cursor is freed.

The function returns DPI_SUCCESS for success and DPI_FAILURE for failure.

cursor [IN] – the cursor from which a reference is to be released. If the reference is NULL or invalid, an error is returned.
