MySQL NDB Cluster API Developer Guide  /  ...  /  NDB API Basic Scanning Example

2.5.5 NDB API Basic Scanning Example

This example illustrates how to use the NDB scanning API. It shows how to perform a scan, how to scan for an update, and how to scan for a delete, making use of the NdbScanFilter and NdbScanOperation classes.

The source code for this example may found in the NDB Cluster source tree, in the file storage/ndb/ndbapi-examples/ndbapi_scan/ndbapi_scan.cpp.

This example makes use of the following classes and methods:
