<hr><a name="details"></a><h2>Detailed Description</h2>


The QSqlDriver class is an abstract base class for accessing
SQL databases.
<p> 

<p> This class should not be used directly. Use <a href="qsqldatabase.html">QSqlDatabase</a> instead.
<p>See also <a href="database.html">Database Classes</a>.

<hr><h2>Member Type Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="DriverFeature-enum"></a>QSqlDriver::DriverFeature</h3>

<p> This enum contains a list of features a driver may support. Use
<a href="#hasFeature">hasFeature</a>() to query whether a feature is supported or not.
<ul>
<li><tt>QSqlDriver::Transactions</tt> - whether the driver supports SQL transactions
<li><tt>QSqlDriver::QuerySize</tt> - whether the database is capable of reporting the size
of a query. Note that some databases do not support returning the size
(i.e. number of rows returned) of a query, in which case
<a href="qsqlquery.html#size">QSqlQuery::size</a>() will return -1
<li><tt>QSqlDriver::BLOB</tt> - whether the driver supports Binary Large Object fields
<li><tt>QSqlDriver::Unicode</tt> - whether the driver supports Unicode strings if the
database server does
<li><tt>QSqlDriver::PreparedQueries</tt> - whether the driver supports prepared query execution
<li><tt>QSqlDriver::NamedPlaceholders</tt> - whether the driver supports usage of named placeholders
<li><tt>QSqlDriver::PositionalPlaceholders</tt> - whether the driver supports usage of positional placeholders
</ul><p> More information about supported features can be found in the
<a href="sql-driver.html">Qt SQL driver</a> documentation.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#hasFeature">hasFeature</a>().

<hr><h2>Member Function Documentation</h2>
<h3 class=fn><a name="QSqlDriver"></a>QSqlDriver::QSqlDriver ( <a href="qobject.html">QObject</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;parent = 0, const&nbsp;char&nbsp;*&nbsp;name = 0 )
</h3>
Default constructor. Creates a new driver with parent <em>parent</em>,
called <em>name</em>.
<p> 
<h3 class=fn><a name="~QSqlDriver"></a>QSqlDriver::~QSqlDriver ()
</h3>
Destroys the object and frees any allocated resources.

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="beginTransaction"></a>QSqlDriver::beginTransaction ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to begin
a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise return FALSE.
The default implementation returns FALSE.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#commitTransaction">commitTransaction</a>() and <a href="#rollbackTransaction">rollbackTransaction</a>().

<h3 class=fn>void <a name="close"></a>QSqlDriver::close ()<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
</h3>

<p> Derived classes must reimplement this abstract virtual function in
order to close the database connection. Return TRUE on success,
FALSE on failure.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#setOpen">setOpen</a>().

<p> 
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="commitTransaction"></a>QSqlDriver::commitTransaction ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to commit
a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise return FALSE.
The default implementation returns FALSE.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#beginTransaction">beginTransaction</a>() and <a href="#rollbackTransaction">rollbackTransaction</a>().

<h3 class=fn><a href="qsqlquery.html">QSqlQuery</a> <a name="createQuery"></a>QSqlDriver::createQuery () const<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
</h3>

<p> Creates an empty SQL result on the database. Derived classes must
reimplement this function and return a <a href="qsqlquery.html">QSqlQuery</a> object
appropriate for their database to the caller.
<p> 
<h3 class=fn><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <a name="formatValue"></a>QSqlDriver::formatValue ( const&nbsp;<a href="qsqlfield.html">QSqlField</a>&nbsp;*&nbsp;field, bool&nbsp;trimStrings = FALSE ) const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Returns a string representation of the <em>field</em> value for the
database. This is used, for example, when constructing INSERT and
UPDATE statements.
<p> The default implementation returns the value formatted as a string
according to the following rules:
<p> <ul>
<p> <li> If <em>field</em> is NULL, <a href="#nullText">nullText</a>() is returned.
<p> <li> If <em>field</em> is character data, the value is returned enclosed
in single quotation marks, which is appropriate for many SQL
databases. Any embedded single-quote characters are escaped
(replaced with two single-quote characters). If <em>trimStrings</em> is
TRUE (the default is FALSE), all trailing whitespace is trimmed
from the field.
<p> <li> If <em>field</em> is date/time data, the value is formatted in ISO
format and enclosed in single quotation marks. If the date/time
data is invalid, nullText() is returned.
<p> <li> If <em>field</em> is bytearray data, and the driver can edit binary
fields, the value is formatted as a hexadecimal string.
<p> <li> For any other field type toString() will be called on its value
and the result returned.
<p> </ul>
<p> <p>See also <a href="qvariant.html#toString">QVariant::toString</a>().

<p> 
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="hasFeature"></a>QSqlDriver::hasFeature ( <a href="qsqldriver.html#DriverFeature-enum">DriverFeature</a>&nbsp;f ) const<tt> [pure virtual]</tt>
</h3>

<p> Returns TRUE if the driver supports feature <em>f</em>; otherwise
returns FALSE.
<p> Note that some databases need to be <a href="#open">open</a>() before this can be
determined.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#DriverFeature-enum">DriverFeature</a>.

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="isOpen"></a>QSqlDriver::isOpen () const

</h3>

<p> Derived classes must reimplement this abstract virtual function in
order to open a database connection on database <em>db</em>, using user
name <em>user</em>, password <em>password</em>, host <em>host</em> and port <em>port</em>.
<p> The function <em>must</em> return TRUE on success and FALSE on failure.
<p> <p>See also <a href="#setOpen">setOpen</a>().

<p> 
<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="open-2"></a>QSqlDriver::open ( const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;db, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;user, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;password, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;host, int&nbsp;port, const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;connOpts )

a table as parameter.

<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="rollbackTransaction"></a>QSqlDriver::rollbackTransaction ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Protected function which derived classes can reimplement to
rollback a transaction. If successful, return TRUE, otherwise
return FALSE. The default implementation returns FALSE.

</h3>
Protected function which sets the open error state of the database
to <em>e</em>. Derived classes can use this function to report the
status of <a href="#open">open</a>(). Note that if <em>e</em> is TRUE the open state of the
database is set to closed (i.e. <a href="#isOpen">isOpen</a>() returns FALSE).
<p> <p>See also <a href="#open">open</a>().

<h3 class=fn><a href="qstringlist.html">QStringList</a> <a name="tables"></a>QSqlDriver::tables ( const&nbsp;<a href="qstring.html">QString</a>&nbsp;&amp;&nbsp;tableType ) const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
</h3>
Returns a list of tables in the database. The default
implementation returns an empty list.
<p> The <em>tableType</em> argument describes what types of tables
should be returned. Due to binary compatibility, the string
contains the value of the enum QSql::TableTypes as text.
An empty string should be treated as QSql::Tables for
downward compatibility.
