Returns
  The value, or `0`.

Glib::ustring Gnome::Gda::Holder::get_value_str | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< DataHandler >& | dh | ) | const

|  | const Value& | value
| ) |  |

void Gnome::Gda::Holder::set_bind | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< Holder >& | bind_to | ) |

Sets holder to change when bind_to changes (and does not make bind_to change when holder changes).

For the operation to succeed, the GType of holder and bind_to must be the same, with the exception that any of them can have a Gda::TYPE_NULL type (in this situation, the GType of the two Gda::Holder objects involved is set to match the other when any of them sets its type to something different than GDA_TYPE_NULL).

If bind_to is `0`, then holder will not be bound anymore.

Parameters

  bind_to | A Gda::Holder or `0`.

Returns
  `true` if no error occurred.

void Gnome::Gda::Holder::set_default_value | ( | const Value& | value | ) |

Sets the default value within the holder.

If value is `0` then holder won't have a default value anymore. To set a default value to `0`, then pass a Value created using gda_value_new_null().

NOTE: the default value does not need to be of the same type as the one required by holder.

Parameters

  value | A value to set the holder's default value, or `0`.

void Gnome::Gda::Holder::set_not_null | ( | bool | not_null = `true` | ) |

Sets if the holder can have a `0` value.

If not_null is `true`, then that won't be allowed

Parameters

  not_null | `true` if holder should not accept `0` values.

bool Gnome::Gda::Holder::set_source_model | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< DataModel >& | model,
|  | int | col
| ) |  |

Sets an hint that holder's values should be restricted among the values contained in the col column of the model data model.

Note that this is just a hint, meaning this policy is not enforced by holder's implementation.

Parameters

  model | A Gda::DataModel object or `0`.
  col | The reference column in model.

Returns
  `true` if no error occurred.

template <class ValueType >

bool Gnome::Gda::Holder::set_value | ( | const ValueType & | value | ) |

bool Gnome::Gda::Holder::set_value_as_value | ( | const Value& | value | ) |

Sets the value within the holder.

If holder is an alias for another holder, then the value is also set for that other holder.

On success, the action of any call to force_invalid() is cancelled as soon as this method is called (even if holder's value does not actually change)

If the value is not different from the one already contained within holder, then holder is not changed and no signal is emitted.

Note
  the value argument is treated the same way if it is `0` or if it is a Gda::TYPE_NULL value
  if holder can't accept the value value, then this method returns `false`, and holder will be left in an invalid state.
  before the change is accepted by holder, the "validate-change" signal will be emitted (the value of which can prevent the change from happening) which can be connected to to have a greater control of which values holder can have, or implement some business rules.

Parameters

  value | A value to set the holder to, or `0`.

Returns
  `true` if value has been set.

bool Gnome::Gda::Holder::set_value_str | ( | const Glib::RefPtr< DataHandler >& | dh,
|  | const Glib::ustring & | value
| ) |  |

Same functionality as set_value() except that it uses a string representation of the value to set, which will be converted into a GValue first (using default data handler if dh is `0`).

Note
  if value is `0` or is the "<tt>0</tt>" string, then holder's value is set to `0`.
  if holder can't accept the value value, then this method returns `false`, and holder will be left in an invalid state.

Parameters

  dh | A Gda::DataHandler to use, or `0`.
  value | A value to set the holder to, as a string.

Returns
  `true` if value has been set.

bool Gnome::Gda::Holder::set_value_to_default | ( |  | ) |

Set holder's value to its default value.

Returns
  `true` if holder has got a default value.

Value Gnome::Gda::Holder::take_static_value | ( | const Value& | value,
|  | bool & | value_changed
| ) |  |

Sets the const value within the holder.

If holder is an alias for another holder, then the value is also set for that other holder.

The value will not be freed, and user should take care of it, either for its freeing or for its correct value at the moment of query.

If the value is not different from the one already contained within holder, then holder is not changed and no signal is emitted.

Note
  if holder can't accept the value value, then this method returns `0`, and holder will be left in an invalid state.
  before the change is accepted by holder, the "validate-change" signal will be emitted (the value of which can prevent the change from happening) which can be connected to to have a greater control of which values holder can have, or implement some business rules.

Parameters

  value | A const value to set the holder to.
  value_changed | A boolean set with `true` if the value changes, `false` elsewhere.

Returns
  `0` if an error occurred or if the previous GValue was `0` itself. It returns the static GValue user set previously, so that he can free it.

bool Gnome::Gda::Holder::take_value | ( | const Value& | value | ) |

Sets the value within the holder.

If holder is an alias for another holder, then the value is also set for that other holder.

On success, the action of any call to force_invalid() is cancelled as soon as this method is called (even if holder's value does not actually change).

If the value is not different from the one already contained within holder, then holder is not changed and no signal is emitted.

Note
  if holder can't accept the value value, then this method returns `false`, and holder will be left in an invalid state.
  before the change is accepted by holder, the "validate-change" signal will be emitted (the value of which can prevent the change from happening) which can be connected to to have a greater control of which values holder can have, or implement some business rules.
  if user previously set this holder with take_static_value() the GValue stored internally will be forgiven and replaced by the value. User should then take care of the 'old' static GValue.

Parameters

  value | A value to set the holder to.

Returns
  `true` if value has been set.

bool Gnome::Gda::Holder::value_is_default | ( |  | ) | const

Tells if holder's current value is the default one.

Returns
  `true` if holder holder's current value is the default one.
