Column Class Overview

Parent class

Child classes

None

Description

Each instance of Column is characterized by its type, which is determined by a number of type specifiers:

Built-in type
Array length or maximum length
Precision and scale (currently not in use)
Character set (applicable only to columns using string data types)
Inline and part sizes (applicable only to blob columns)

These types in general correspond to MySQL data types and their variants. The data formats are same as in MySQL. The NDB API provides no support for constructing such formats; however, they are checked by the NDB kernel.

Methods

The following table lists the public methods of this class and the purpose or use of each method:

Types

These are the public types of the Column class:

Table 2.7 Column class types and descriptionse.

Type	Description
`ArrayType`	Specifies the column's internal storage format
`StorageType`	Determines whether the column is stored in memory or on disk
`Type`	The column's data type. `NDB` columns have the same data types as found in MySQL

The assignment (=) operator is overloaded for this class, so that it always performs a deep copy.

Important

Columns created using this class cannot be seen by the MySQL Server. This means that they cannot be accessed by MySQL clients, and that they cannot be replicated. For these reasons, it is often preferable to avoid working with them.

In the NDB API, column names are handled in case-sensitive fashion. (This differs from the MySQL C API.) To reduce the possibility for error, it is recommended that you name all columns consistently using uppercase or lowercase.

As with other database objects, Column object creation and attribute changes to existing columns done using the NDB API are not visible from MySQL. For example, if you change a column's data type using Column::setType(), MySQL will regard the type of column as being unchanged. The only exception to this rule with regard to columns is that you can change the name of an existing column using Column::setName().

Column::ArrayType

Abstract

This section provides information about the ArrayType data type, which represents a column's internal attribute format.

Description

The attribute storage format can be either fixed or variable.

Enumeration values

Possible values are shown, along with descriptions, in the following table:

Table 2.8 Column object ArrayType data type values and descriptions

Name	Description
`ArrayTypeFixed`	stored as a fixed number of bytes
`ArrayTypeShortVar`	stored as a variable number of bytes; uses 1 byte overhead
`ArrayTypeMediumVar`	stored as a variable number of bytes; uses 2 bytes overhead

The fixed storage format is faster but also generally requires more space than the variable format. The default is ArrayTypeShortVar for Var* types and ArrayTypeFixed for others. The default is usually sufficient.

Column Constructor

Description

You can create a new Column or copy an existing one using the class constructor.

A Column created using the NDB API is not visible to a MySQL server.

The NDB API handles column names in case-sensitive fashion. For example, if you create a column named “myColumn”, you will not be able to access it later using “Mycolumn” for the name. You can reduce the possibility for error, by naming all columns consistently using only uppercase or only lowercase.

Signature

You can create either a new instance of the Column class, or by copying an existing Column object. Both of these are shown here:

Constructor for a new Column:

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
Column
    (
      const char* name = ""
    )

Copy constructor:

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
Column
    (
      const Column& column
    )

Parameters

When creating a new instance of Column, the constructor takes a single argument, which is the name of the new column to be created. The copy constructor also takes one parameter—in this case, a reference to the Column instance to be copied.

Return value

A Column object.

Destructor

The Column class destructor takes no arguments and returns nothing (void).

Column::equal()

Description

This method is used to compare one Column with another to determine whether the two Column objects are the same.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
bool equal
    (
      const Column& column
    ) const

Parameters

equal() takes a single parameter, a reference to an instance of Column.

Return value

true if the columns being compared are equal, otherwise false.

Column::getArrayType()

Description

This method gets the column's array type.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
ArrayType getArrayType
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

An ArrayType; see Column::ArrayType for possible values.

Column::getAutoIncrement()

Description

This method shows whether the column is an auto-increment column.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
bool getAutoIncrement
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

TRUE if the column is an auto-increment column, FALSE if it is not.

Column::getCharset()

Description

This gets the character set used by a text column.

This method is applicable only to columns whose Type value is Char, Varchar, or Text.

The NDB API handles column names in case-sensitive fashion; “myColumn” and “Mycolumn” are not considered to refer to the same column. It is recommended that you minimize the possibility of errors from using the wrong lettercase for column names by naming all columns consistently using only uppercase or only lowercase.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
CHARSET_INFO* getCharset
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

A pointer to a CHARSET_INFO structure specifying both character set and collation. This is the same as a MySQL MY_CHARSET_INFO data structure; for more information, see mysql_get_character_set_info(),in the MySQL Manual.

Column::getColumnNo()

Description

This method gets the sequence number of a column within its containing table or index. If the column is part of an index (such as when returned by getColumn()), it is mapped to its position within that index, and not within the table containing the index.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
int getColumnNo
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

The column number as an integer.

Column::getDefaultValue()

Description

Gets a column's default value data.

To determine whether a table has any columns with default values, use Table::hasDefaultValues().

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
const void* getDefaultValue
    (
      unsigned int* len = 0
    ) const

Parameters

len holds either the length of the default value data, or 0 in the event that the column is nullable or has no default value.

Return value

The default value data.

Column::getInlineSize()

Description

This method retrieves the inline size of a blob column—that is, the number of initial bytes to store in the table's blob attribute. This part is normally in main memory and can be indexed.

This method is applicable only to blob columns.

Beginning with NDB 8.0.29, you can also obtain this information in the mysql client, by querying the ndbinfo.blobs table.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
int getInlineSize
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

The blob column's inline size, as an integer.

Column::getLength()

Description

This method gets the length of a column. This is either the array length for the column or—for a variable length array—the maximum length.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
int getLength
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

The (maximum) array length of the column, as an integer.

Column::getName()

Description

This method returns the name of the column for which it is called.

The NDB API handles column names in case-sensitive fashion. For example, if you retrieve the name “myColumn” for a given column, attempting to access this column using “Mycolumn” for the name fails with an error such as Column is NULL or Table definition has undefined column. You can reduce the possibility for error, by naming all columns consistently using only uppercase or only lowercase.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
const char* getName
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

The name of the column.

Column::getNullable()

Description

This method is used to determine whether the column can be set to NULL.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
bool getNullable
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

A Boolean value: true if the column can be set to NULL, otherwise false.

Column::getPartitionKey()

Description

This method is used to check whether the column is part of the table's partitioning key.

A partitioning key is a set of attributes used to distribute the tuples onto the data nodes. This key a hashing function specific to the NDB storage engine.

An example where this would be useful is an inventory tracking application involving multiple warehouses and regions, where it might be good to use the warehouse ID and district id as the partition key. This would place all data for a specific district and warehouse in the same storage node. Locally to each fragment the full primary key will still be used with the hashing algorithm in such a case.

For more information about partitioning, partitioning schemes, and partitioning keys in MySQL, see Partitioning, in the MySQL Manual.

The only type of user-defined partitioning that is supported for use with the NDB storage engine is key partitioning, including linear key partitioning.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
bool getPartitionKey
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

true if the column is part of the partitioning key for the table, otherwise false.

Column::getPartSize()

Description

This method is used to get the blob part size of a BLOB column—that is, the number of bytes that are stored in each tuple of the blob table.

This method is applicable to BLOB columns only.

In NDB 8.0.29 and later, you can also obtain this information in the mysql client or other MySQL client, by querying the ndbinfo.blobs table.

Signature

Press CTRL+C to copy
 
int getPartSize
    (
      void
    ) const

Parameters

None.

Return value

The column's part size, as an integer. In the case of a Tinyblob column, this value is 0 (that is, only inline bytes are stored).

Return value

None.

Column::StorageType

This section provides information about the StorageType data type, which describes the storage type used by a Column object.

Description

The storage type used for a given column can be either in memory or on disk. Columns stored on disk mean that less RAM is required overall but such columns cannot be indexed, and are potentially much slower to access. The default is StorageTypeMemory.

Enumeration values

Possible values are shown, along with descriptions, in the following table:

Table 2.9 Column object StorageType data type values and descriptions

Name	Description
`StorageTypeMemory`	Store the column in memory
`StorageTypeDisk`	Store the column on disk

Column::Type

This section provides information about the Type data type, which is used to describe a column's data type.

Description

Data types for Column objects are analogous to the data types used by MySQL. The types Tinyint, Tinyintunsigned, Smallint, Smallunsigned, Mediumint, Mediumunsigned, Int, Unsigned, Bigint, Bigunsigned, Float, and Double (that is, types Tinyint through Double in the order listed in the Enumeration Values table) can be used in arrays.

Do not confuse Column::Type with Object::Type.

Enumeration values

Possible values are shown, along with descriptions, in the following table:

Table 2.10 Column object Type data type values and descriptions

Name	Description
`Undefined`	Undefined
`Tinyint`	1-byte signed integer

`Decimalunsigned`	Unsigned decimal as used by MySQL 5.0 and later
`Char`	A fixed-length array of 1-byte characters; maximum length is 255 characters
`Varchar`	A variable-length array of 1-byte characters; maximum length is 255 characters
`Binary`	A fixed-length array of 1-byte binary characters; maximum length is 255 characters
`Varbinary`	A variable-length array of 1-byte binary characters; maximum length is 255 characters
`Datetime`	An 8-byte date and time value, with a precision of 1 second (DEPRECATED)
`Datetime2`	An 8-byte date and time value, with fractional seconds.
`Date`	A 4-byte date value, with a precision of 1 day
`Blob`	A binary large object; see Section 2.3.13, “The NdbBlob Class”
`Text`	A text blob
`Bit`	A bit value; the length specifies the number of bits
`Longvarchar`	A 2-byte `Varchar`
`Longvarbinary`	A 2-byte `Varbinary`
`Time`	Time without date (DEPRECATED)
`Time2`	Time without date, with fractional seconds.
`Year`	1-byte year value in the range 1901-2155 (same as MySQL)

The NDB API provides access to time types with microseconds (TIME, DATETIME, and TIMESTAMP) as Time2, Datetime2, and Timestamp2. (Time, Datetime, and Timestamp are deprecated as of the same version.) Use setPrecision() to set up to 6 fractional digits (default 0). Data formats are as in MySQL and must use the correct byte length.

Since NDB can compare any of these values as binary strings, it does not perform any checks on the actual data.
