1Open Database Connectivity(ODBC)• We’d like more power to manipulate DBs– looping, updating• Programs can benefit from using DBs– statistical analysis: use info from DB ratherreading text file or hard coding in headerWhat is ODBC?• API that database vendors can implementfor their system via ODBC driver• Your program makes requests via the API• Driver talks to the DBMS using SQL• Available drivers:– SQL Server, Access, FoxPro, Excel, dBase,Paradox, text filesMFC’s Database Classes• MFC provides interface on top of theODBC API, for use in C++• CDatabase• CRecordsetHow to connect to a datasource...• Use ODBC data source administrator in theControl Panel to register your datasource• Create classes derived from the Crecordsettype for each table in your database• Instantiate a Cdatabase object and use it toconnect to your datasource• Initialize your Crecordsets with theconnected databaseCDatabase• Member functions:– Open(“Name of data source”)–Close–IsOpen– BeginTrans, CommitTrans, Rollback– ExecuteSQL(“SQL statement”)• Examples...CRecordset• High level view…– Hardcode the table name to connect– Object exposes one record of the table at time– Member variable for each column in table– These members exchange data with theassociated column in the current record2CRecordset• Member Vars:– One for each column– m_strFilter, a string holding WHERE clause• Member Functions– Crecordset(&Cdatabase)– Open, Close– IsOpen, IsBof, IsEof– AddNew, Delete, Update, Edit– MoveFirst, MoveLast, MoveNext, MovePrev– IsFieldNull, IsFieldDirty, RequeryExample: Connect with StudentRegistration DB• Instructor (InstructorID, Name, RoomNo)• Student (StudentID, Name, GradYear)• Course (CourseID, CourseTitle, Hours)• Section (CourseID,SectionNo, InstructorID,RoomNo, Schedule, Capacity)Student Crecordsetcl ass St udent s1 : publ i c CRecor dset{publ i c:St udent s1( CDat abase* pDat abase = NULL);DECLARE_ DYNAMI C(St udent s1)/ / Fi e l d/ Par am Dat a/ / {{AFX_FIELD( St udent s1, CRecor dset )l ong m_St udent I D;CString m_Name;i nt m_Gr adYear ;/ / }}AFX_FI ELD}St udent s1: : St udent s1( CDat abase* pdb): CRecor dset ( pdb){/ / {{AFX_FIELD_I NIT( St udent s1)m_St udent I D = 0;m_ Na me = _ T ( " " ) ;m_GradYear = 0;m_nFields = 3;/ / }}AFX_FIELD_I NITm_nDef aul t Type = dynaset ;}CString Students1::GetDefaultConnect(){return _T("ODBC;DSN=Stdregistration");}CString Students1::GetDefaultSQL(){return _T("[Student]");}voi d St udent s1: : DoFi el dExchange( CFi el dExchange* pFX){/ / {{AFX_FIELD_MAP(St udent s1)pFX- >Set Fi el dType( CFi el dExchange: : out put Col umn);RFX_Long(pFX, _T( "[ St udent I D] ") , m_St udent I D);RFX_Text(pFX, _T("[Name]"), m_Name);RFX_Int(pFX, _T("[GradYear]"), m_GradYear);/ / }}AFX_FIELD_MAP}class Sections : public CRecordset{public:Sections(CDatabase* pDatabase = NULL);DECLARE_DYNAMIC(Sections)// Field/Param Data//{{AFX_FIELD(Sections, CRecordset)CString m_CourseID;CString m_SectionNo;CString m_InstructorID;CString m_RoomNo;CString m_Schedule;int m_Capacity;//}}AFX_FIELD}Sections::Sections(CDatabase* pdb): CRecordset(pdb){//{{AFX_FIELD_INIT(Sections)m_CourseID = _T("");m_SectionNo = _T("");m_InstructorID = _T("");m_RoomNo = _T("");m_Schedule = _T("");m_Capacity = 0;m_nFields = 6;//}}AFX_FIELD_INITm_nDefaultType = dynaset;}CString Sections::GetDefaultConnect(){return _T("ODBC;DSN=Stdregistration");}CString Sections::GetDefaultSQL(){return _T("[Section]");}void Sections::DoFieldExchange(CFieldExchange* pFX){//{{AFX_FIELD_MAP(Sections)pFX->SetFieldType(CFieldExchange::outputColumn);RFX_Text(pFX, _T("[CourseID]"), m_CourseID);RFX_Text(pFX, _T("[SectionNo]"), m_SectionNo);RFX_Text(pFX, _T("[InstructorID]"), m_InstructorID);RFX_Text(pFX, _T("[RoomNo]"), m_RoomNo);RFX_Text(pFX, _T("[Schedule]"), m_Schedule);RFX_Int(pFX, _T("[Capacity]"), m_Capacity);//}}AFX_FIELD_MAP}3CMyprojDoc::CMyprojDoc(){CDatabase StudDB;StudDB.OpenEx(_T("ODBC;DSN=Stdregistration"));Students1 StudentTable(&StudDB);StudentTable.Open(CRecordset::dynaset, "Students");//Add a new studentStudentTable.AddNew();StudentTable.m_StudentID = 97999999;StudentTable.m_Name = "John Smith";StudentTable.m_GradYear = 1999;StudentTable.Update();//Cycle through sections and editSections SectionTable(&StudDB);SectionTable.Open();SectionTable.m_strFilter = "InstructorID = ’ROGERSN’";SectionTable.Requery();SectionTable.MoveFirst();while (!SectionTable.IsEOF()) {SectionTable.m_InstructorID = "SMITHJ";SectionTable.MoveNext();}SectionTable.Update();//Add a new table and attach it to queryCString strSQL = "CREATE TABLE InstructorCourses (InstructorIDVARCHAR(15), CourseTitle VARCHAR(15) )";StudDB.ExecuteSQL(strSQL);CString strSQL = "INSERT INTO InstructorCourses (InstructorID,CourseTitle) SELECT InstructorID, CourseTitle FROM Section, InstructorWHERE Section.InstructorID = Instructor.InstructorID";StudDB.ExecuteSQL(strSQL);InsCourses
