Mr. Rao EOF() BOF() not working wirh RecSet

[Willi Quintana]

Mr Rao
You can help me please , I use RecSet, but not work correctly, EOF() and BOF() not workink with RecSet, see you this example: I used MaeiaDb

Code: Select all | Expand

Function ListaUser(oCn)
local lOK, cData, oData, aRet := {}

lOk := .t.

cData := "SELECT nick FROM usuarios ORDER BY nick"

TRY
  oData := oCn:RecSet( cData )
CATCH
  lOK := .f.
END

If lOk

  xbrowse(oData)           // <----------------------------ok..

  WHILE !oData:EOF()   // <--------- :EOF(), BOF()  With :RecSet not working, with RowSet  is Ok
    AADD(aRet, oData:nick )
    oData:Skip()
  ENDDO

EndIf

Return(aRet)

What about calling oData:MoveFirst() before starting the Do while Loop ?

You are right.
With RecSet, eof() and bof() do not work.
We will try to provide this in future versions.
for now you can use this:

Code: Select all | Expand

nRecs := oData:RecCount()
nSave := oData:RecNo()
do while oData:RecNo() <= nRecs
   // do whatever
   oData:Skip( 1 )
enddo
oData:GoTo( nSave ) 
 

Note:
We advise to use RecSet class if and only if the table is very large and there is no other go but to read and browse the entire table.
In all other cases use RowSet class with suitable WHERE clause.
