Libgda simple example
=====================
Description:
------------
The example in this directory illustrate how to get meta data information (information about
the database's objects). There are 2 examples.
example.c:
----------
The following is done:
* display columns of the 'customers' table, there should be none as the meta data has not been
yet updated
* update the meta data for the 'customers' table, and show the columns now
* update the meta data for all the tables, and this time show the columns of the 'products' table
background.c:
-------------
This example executes a complete meta data update in the background (in a sub thread) using
the GdaThreadWrapper object, while it displays some messages.
Compiling and running:
----------------------
To compile (make sure Libgda is installed prior to this):
> make
and to run:
> ./example
Output:
-------
Running should produce the following output:
Initial metastore state
No column...
Partial metastore update for table 'customers'...
Tables' columns:
id: gint
name: gchararray
default_served_by: gint
country: gchararray
city: gchararray
Partial metastore update for all the tables...
Tables' columns:
ref: gchararray
category: gint
name: gchararray
price: gdouble
wh_stored: gint
> ./background
Output:
-------
Running should produce the following output:
