SQL to C: Character

The identifiers for the character ODBC SQL data types are the following:

  • SQL_CHAR
  • SQL_VARCHAR
  • SQL_LONGVARCHAR
  • SQL_WCHAR
  • SQL_WVARCHAR
  • SQL_WLONGVARCHAR

The following table shows the ODBC C data types to which character SQL data may be converted. For an explanation of the columns and terms in the table, see Converting Data from SQL to C Data Types.

[a] The value of BufferLength is ignored for this conversion. The driver assumes that the size of *TargetValuePtr is the size of the C data type.

[b] This is the size of the corresponding C data type.

[c] The time portion of the timestamp-value is truncated.

[d] The date portion of the timestamp-value is ignored.

[e] The fractional seconds portion of the timestamp is truncated.

[f] The time fields of the timestamp structure are set to zero.

[g] The date fields of the timestamp structure are set to the current date.

Extra spaces

Leading and trailing spaces are ignored when SQL character data is converted to any of the following types:

  • date
  • numeric
  • time
  • timestamp
  • interval C data
