Usando tipos de valor grande

Antes do SQL Server 2005, trabalhar com tipos de dados de valor grande exigia procedimentos especiais. Os tipos de dados de valor grande são aqueles que excedem o tamanho de linha máximo de 8 KB. O SQL Server 2005 introduziu um especificador max para os tipos de dados varchar, nvarchar e varbinary a fim de permitir o armazenamento de valores de até 2^31 -1 bytes. As colunas de tabela e variáveis Transact-SQL podem especificar os tipos de dados varchar (max), nvarchar (max) ou varbinary (max).

ObservaçãoObservação

Os tipos de dados de valor grande podem ter entre 1 e 8 KB ou podem ser especificados como ilimitado.

Antes, apenas os tipos de dados do SQL Server como text, ntext e image podiam ter tais comprimentos. O especificador max para varchar, nvarchar e varbinary tornou esses tipos de dados redundantes. No entanto, pelo fato de esses tipos de dados longos ainda estarem disponíveis, a maioria das interfaces para os componentes de dados OLE DB e ODBC permanecerá a mesma. Para fins de compatibilidade com versões anteriores, o sinalizador DBCOLUMNFLAGS_ISLONG no provedor OLE DB do SQL Server Native Client e o SQL_LONGVARCHAR no driver ODBC do SQL Server Native Client permanecem em uso. Os provedores e drivers criados no SQL Server 2005 e SQL Server 2008 continuam a usar essas condições para os novos tipos quando definidos como comprimento máximo ilimitado.

ObservaçãoObservação

Você também pode especificar os tipos de dados varchar(max), nvarchar(max) e varbinary(max) como tipos de parâmetro de entrada e saída de procedimentos armazenados, tipos de retorno de função ou nas funções CAST e CONVERT.

Provedor OLE DB do SQL Server Native Client

O provedor OLE DB do SQL Server Native Client expõe os tipos varchar (max), varbinary (max) e nvarchar (max) como DBTYPE_STR, DBTYPE_BYTES e DBTYPE_WSTR, respectivamente.

Os tipos de dados varchar(max), varbinary(max) e nvarchar(max) nas colunas com o tamanho max definido como ilimitado são representados como ISLONG por meio de conjuntos de linhas e interfaces principais do esquema OLE DB que retornam tipos de dados de coluna.

A implementação do comando de objeto IAccessor foi alterada para permitir a associação como DBTYPE_IUNKNOWN. Se o consumidor especificar DBTYPE_IUNKNOWN e definir pObject como nulo, o provedor retornará a interface ISequentialStream para o consumidor de modo que ele possa transmitir os dados varchar(max), nvarchar(max) ou varbinary(max) usando variáveis de saída.

Os valores de parâmetro de saída transmitidos são retornados após as linhas de resultado. Se o aplicativo tentar avançar para o próximo conjunto de resultados chamando IMultipleResults::GetResult sem consumir todos os valores de parâmetro de saída retornados, DB_E_OBJECTOPEN será retornado.

A fim de dar suporte ao recurso de streaming, o provedor OLE DB do SQL Server Native Client exige que os parâmetros de comprimento variável sejam acessados em ordem seqüencial. Isso significa que DBPROP_ACCESSORDER deve ser definido como DBPROPVAL_AO_SEQUENTIALSTORAGEOBJECTS ou DBPROPVAL_AO_SEQUENTIAL toda vez que as colunas varchar(max), nvarchchar(max) ou varbinary(max) ou os parâmetros de saída estiverem associados a DBTYPE_IUNKNOWN. As chamadas para IRowset::GetData resultarão em falha com DBSTATUS_E_UNAVAILABLE se essa restrição de ordem de acesso não for atendida. Essa restrição não se aplica quando não há associações de saída usando DBTYPE_IUNKNOWN.

O provedor OLE DB do SQL Server Native Client também dá suporte aos parâmetros de saída de associação, como DBTYPE_IUNKNOWN, para tipos de dados de valor grande a fim de facilitar cenários onde um procedimento armazenado retorne ao cliente tipos de valor grande como valores de retorno expostos como DBTYPE_IUNKNOWN.

Para trabalhar com esses tipos, um aplicativo tem as seguintes opções:

  • Associar como um tipo que suporta associações com o tipo de base da coluna (eg for nvarchar(max), associar como um tipo que possa ser vinculado a nvarchar). Se o buffer não for grande o suficiente, ocorrerá truncamento, exatamente como para o tipo de base, embora os valores maiores estejam disponíveis agora.

  • Associar como um tipo que suporta conversões com o tipo de base da coluna e também especifica DBTYPE_BYREF.

  • Associar como DBTYPE_IUNKNOWN e usar streaming.

Ao informar o tamanho máximo de uma coluna, o provedor OLE DB do SQL Server Native Client usará:

  • O tamanho máximo definido, por exemplo 2000, para uma coluna varchar(2000) ou

  • O valor "ilimitado" que no caso de uma coluna varchar (max) é igual a ~ 0. Esse valor é definido para a propriedade de metadados DBCOLUMN_COLUMNSIZE.

As regras padrão de conversão serão aplicadas a uma coluna varchar(max), o que significa que qualquer conversão válida para uma coluna varchar(2000) também será válida para uma coluna varchar(max). O mesmo vale para as colunas nvarchar (max) e varbinary (max).

Ao recuperar tipos de valor grande, a abordagem mais eficiente é associar como DBTYPE_IUNKNOWN e definir a propriedade do conjunto de linhas DBPROP_ACCESSORDER como DBPROPVAL_AO_SEQUENTIALSTORAGEOBJECTS. Esse procedimento fará com que o valor seja transmitido diretamente da rede sem utilização de buffer intermediário, como no seguinte exemplo:

Driver ODBC do SQL Server Native Client

O driver ODBC do SQL Server Native Client expõe os tipos varchar(max), varbinary(max) e nvarchar(max) como SQL_VARCHAR, SQL_VARBINARY, e SQL_WVARCHAR nas funções API ODBC que aceitam ou retornam tipos de dados SQL ODBC.

Ao informar o tamanho máximo de uma coluna, o driver usará:

  • O tamanho máximo definido, por exemplo 2000, para uma coluna varchar(2000) ou

  • O valor "ilimitado" que no caso de uma coluna varchar (max) é igual a 0.

As regras padrão de conversão são aplicadas a uma coluna varchar(max), o que significa que qualquer conversão válida para uma coluna varchar(2000) também será válida para uma coluna varchar(max). O mesmo vale para as colunas nvarchar (max) e varbinary (max).

A seguir, encontra-se uma lista das funções API ODBC que foram aprimoradas para aceitar tipos de dados de valor grande:
