MySQL NDB Cluster API Developer Guide  /  ...  /  NDB API Simple Array Example Using Adapter

2.5.13 NDB API Simple Array Example Using Adapter

This program inserts CHAR, VARCHAR, and BINARY column data into a table by constructing aRef objects using array adapters of the type defined in common/array_adapter.hpp (see Section 2.5.15, “Common Files for NDB API Array Examples”). It then reads the columns back and extracts the data, again using array adapters.

The example uses the table shown here:

CREATE TABLE api_array_using_adapter (
  ATTR1 INT UNSIGNED NOT NULL PRIMARY KEY,
  ATTR2 CHAR(20) NOT NULL,
  ATTR3 VARCHAR(20) NOT NULL,
  ATTR4 VARCHAR(500) NOT NULL,
  ATTR5 BINARY(20) NOT NULL,
  ATTR6 VARBINARY(20) NOT NULL,
  ATTR7 VARBINARY(500) NOT NULL
) ENGINE NDB CHARSET latin1;

The example file can be found as ndbapi_array_using_adapter/ndbapi_array_using_adapter.cpp in the NDB Cluster source distribution's storage/ndb/ndbapi-examples directory. (Bug #70550, Bug #17592990)
