Class: mssql_sql_generator  - X-Ref

This class generate SQL code to be used against MSSQL
It extends XMLDBgenerator so everything can be
overridden as needed to generate correct SQL.

getResetSequenceSQL($table)   X-Ref
Reset a sequence to the id field of a table.

param: xmldb_table|string $table name of table or the table object.
return: array of sql statements

getTableName(xmldb_table $xmldb_table, $quoted=true)   X-Ref
Given one xmldb_table, returns it's correct name, depending of all the parametrization
Overridden to allow change of names in temp tables

param: xmldb_table table whose name we want
param: boolean to specify if the name must be quoted (if reserved word, only!)
return: string the correct name of the table

getCreateIndexSQL($xmldb_table, $xmldb_index)   X-Ref
No description

getCreateTempTableSQL($xmldb_table)   X-Ref
Given one correct xmldb_table, returns the SQL statements
to create temporary table (inside one array).

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The xmldb_table object instance.
return: array of sql statements

getTypeSQL($xmldb_type, $xmldb_length=null, $xmldb_decimals=null)   X-Ref
Given one XMLDB Type, length and decimals, returns the DB proper SQL type.

param: int $xmldb_type The xmldb_type defined constant. XMLDB_TYPE_INTEGER and other XMLDB_TYPE_* constants.
param: int $xmldb_length The length of that data type.
param: int $xmldb_decimals The decimal places of precision of the data type.
return: string The DB defined data type.

getDropFieldSQL($xmldb_table, $xmldb_field)   X-Ref
Given one xmldb_table and one xmldb_field, return the SQL statements needed to drop the field from the table.
MSSQL overwrites the standard sentence because it needs to do some extra work dropping the default and
check constraints

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The table related to $xmldb_field.
param: xmldb_field $xmldb_field The instance of xmldb_field to create the SQL from.
return: array The SQL statement for dropping a field from the table.

getRenameFieldSQL($xmldb_table, $xmldb_field, $newname)   X-Ref
Given one correct xmldb_field and the new name, returns the SQL statements
to rename it (inside one array).

MSSQL is special, so we overload the function here. It needs to
drop the constraints BEFORE renaming the field

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The table related to $xmldb_field.
param: xmldb_field $xmldb_field The instance of xmldb_field to get the renamed field from.
param: string $newname The new name to rename the field to.
return: array The SQL statements for renaming the field.

getRenameTableExtraSQL($xmldb_table, $newname)   X-Ref
Returns the code (array of statements) needed to execute extra statements on table rename.

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The xmldb_table object instance.
param: string $newname The new name for the table.
return: array Array of extra SQL statements to rename a table.

getAlterFieldSQL($xmldb_table, $xmldb_field, $skip_type_clause = NULL, $skip_default_clause = NULL, $skip_notnull_clause = NULL)   X-Ref
Given one xmldb_table and one xmldb_field, return the SQL statements needed to alter the field in the table.

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The table related to $xmldb_field.
param: xmldb_field $xmldb_field The instance of xmldb_field to create the SQL from.
param: string $skip_type_clause The type clause on alter columns, NULL by default.
param: string $skip_default_clause The default clause on alter columns, NULL by default.
param: string $skip_notnull_clause The null/notnull clause on alter columns, NULL by default.
return: string The field altering SQL statement.

getModifyDefaultSQL($xmldb_table, $xmldb_field)   X-Ref
Given one xmldb_table and one xmldb_field, return the SQL statements needed to modify the default of the field in the table.

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The table related to $xmldb_field.
param: xmldb_field $xmldb_field The instance of xmldb_field to get the modified default value from.
return: array The SQL statement for modifying the default value.

getCreateDefaultSQL($xmldb_table, $xmldb_field)   X-Ref
Given one xmldb_table and one xmldb_field, return the SQL statements needed to add its default
(usually invoked from getModifyDefaultSQL()

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The xmldb_table object instance.
param: xmldb_field $xmldb_field The xmldb_field object instance.
return: array Array of SQL statements to create a field's default.

getDropDefaultSQL($xmldb_table, $xmldb_field)   X-Ref
Given one xmldb_table and one xmldb_field, return the SQL statements needed to drop its default
(usually invoked from getModifyDefaultSQL()

Note that this method may be dropped in future.

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The xmldb_table object instance.
param: xmldb_field $xmldb_field The xmldb_field object instance.
return: array Array of SQL statements to create a field's default.

getDefaultConstraintName($xmldb_table, $xmldb_field)   X-Ref
Given one xmldb_table and one xmldb_field, returns the name of its default constraint in DB
or false if not found
This function should be considered internal and never used outside from generator

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The xmldb_table object instance.
param: xmldb_field $xmldb_field The xmldb_field object instance.
return: mixed

getNameForObject($tablename, $fields, $suffix='')   X-Ref
Given three strings (table name, list of fields (comma separated) and suffix),
create the proper object name quoting it if necessary.

IMPORTANT: This function must be used to CALCULATE NAMES of objects TO BE CREATED,
NEVER TO GUESS NAMES of EXISTING objects!!!

IMPORTANT: We are overriding this function for the MSSQL generator because objects
belonging to temporary tables aren't searchable in the catalog neither in information
schema tables. So, for temporary tables, we are going to add 4 randomly named "virtual"
fields, so the generated names won't cause concurrency problems. Really nasty hack,
but the alternative involves modifying all the creation table code to avoid naming
constraints for temp objects and that will dupe a lot of code.

param: string $tablename The table name.
param: string $fields A list of comma separated fields.
param: string $suffix A suffix for the object name.
return: string Object's name.

isNameInUse($object_name, $type, $table_name)   X-Ref
Given one object name and it's type (pk, uk, fk, ck, ix, uix, seq, trg).

(MySQL requires the whole xmldb_table object to be specified, so we add it always)

This is invoked from getNameForObject().
Only some DB have this implemented.

param: string $object_name The object's name to check for.
param: string $type The object's type (pk, uk, fk, ck, ix, uix, seq, trg).
param: string $table_name The table's name to check in
return: bool If such name is currently in use (true) or no (false)

getCommentSQL($xmldb_table)   X-Ref
Returns the code (array of statements) needed to add one comment to the table.

param: xmldb_table $xmldb_table The xmldb_table object instance.
return: array Array of SQL statements to add one comment to the table.

addslashes($s)   X-Ref
Adds slashes to string.

param: string $s
return: string The escaped string.

getReservedWords()   X-Ref
Returns an array of reserved words (lowercase) for this DB

return: array An array of database specific reserved words
