Syntax
HRESULT CreateTableWithConstraints(
IUnknown *pUnkOuter,
DBID *pTableID,
DBORDINAL cColumnDescs,
const DBCOLUMNDESC rgColumnDescs[],
ULONG cConstraintDescs,
DBCONSTRAINTDESC rgConstraintDescs[],
REFIID riid,
ULONG cPropertySets,
DBPROPSET rgPropertySets[],
DBID **ppTableID,
IUnknown **ppRowset);
Parameters
pUnkOuter
[in] The controlling unknown if the rowset is to be aggregated; otherwise, a null pointer.pTableID
[in] A pointer to the ID of the table to create. If this is a null pointer, the provider must assign a unique ID to the table.cColumnDescs
[in] The number of DBCOLUMNDESC structures in the rgColumnDescs array. This can be zero if the provider allows the creation of tables with no columns.rgColumnDescs
[in/out] An array of DBCOLUMNDESC structures that describe the columns of the table. For more information on the DBCOLUMNDESC structure, please refer to ITableDefinition::CreateTable.cConstraintDescs
[in] The number of DBCONSTRAINTDESC structures in the rgConstraintDescs array. If this is zero, rgConstraintDescs is ignored.rgConstraintDescs
[in] An array of DBCONSTRAINTDESC structures that describe constraints to be created on the table. For more information on this structure, please refer to ITableDefinitionWithConstraints::AddConstraint.riid
[in] The IID of the interface to be returned for the resulting rowset; this is ignored if ppRowset is a null pointer.cPropertySets
[in] The number of DBPROPSET structures in rgPropertySets. If this is zero, the provider ignores rgPropertySets.rgPropertySets
[in/out] An array of DBPROPSET structures containing properties and values to be set. The properties specified in these structures must belong to the Rowset property group (for properties that apply to the rowset returned in *ppRowset) or the Table property group (for properties that apply to the table). If the same property is specified more than once in rgPropertySets, it is provider-specific which value is used. If cPropertySets is zero, this argument is ignored.For information about the properties in the Rowset and Tables property groups that are defined by OLE DB, see Rowset Property Group and Table Property Group in Appendix C. For information about the DBPROPSET and DBPROP structures, see DBPROPSET Structure and DBPROP Structure.
ppTableID
[out] A pointer to memory in which to return the DBID of the newly created table. If ppTableID is a null pointer, no DBID is returned.ppRowset
[out] A pointer to memory in which to return the requested interface pointer on an empty rowset opened on the newly created table. If ppRowset is a null pointer, no rowset is created.
Return Code
S_OK
The method succeeded, and the table is created and opened. In all DBPROP structures passed to the method, dwStatus is set to DBPROPSTATUS_OK.DB_S_ERRORSOCCURRED
The table was created and the rowset was opened, but one or more properties ? for which the dwOptions element of the DBPROP structure was DBPROPOPTIONS_OPTIONAL ? were not set. The consumer checks dwStatus in the DBPROP structures to determine which properties were not set. The method can fail to set properties for a number of reasons, including the following:The property was not supported by the provider.
The property was not in the Column, Rowset, or Table property group.
The property set was not supported by the provider.
It was not possible to set the property.
colid in the DBPROP structure was not DB_NULLID.
The data type in vValue in the DBPROP structure was not the data type of the property or was not VT_EMPTY.
The value in vValue in the DBPROP structure was invalid.
The property's value conflicted with an existing property.
E_FAIL
A provider-specific error occurred.E_INVALIDARG
pTableID and ppTableID were both null pointers.cColumnDesc was not zero, or rgColumnDescs was a null pointer. cColumnDesc was zero, and the provider does not support creating tables with no columns.
cPropertySets was not zero, and rgPropertySets was a null pointer.
In an element of rgPropertySets, cProperties was not zero and rgProperties was a null pointer.
In an element of rgColumnDescs, cPropertySets was not zero and rgPropertySets was a null pointer.
cConstraintDescs was not zero, and rgConstraintDescs was a null pointer.
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, cForeignKeyColumns was not zero and rgForeignKeyColumnList was null.
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, cForeignKeyColumns was not zero and was not equal to cColumns.
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, cColumns was not zero and rgColumnList was null.
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, cPropertySets was not zero and rgPropertySets was a null pointer.
DB_E_BADCOLUMNID
dbcid in an element of rgColumnDescs was an invalid column ID.DB_E_NOCOLUMN
The DBCONSTRAINTDESC structure contained a reference to a column ID, either in rgForeignKeyColumnList, when rgForeignKeyColumnList is not ignored, or in rgColumnList, and the column was not found.DB_E_BADCONSTRAINTFORM
ConstraintType was not DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_FOREIGNKEY, and cForeignKeyColumns was not zero.ConstraintType was not DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_FOREIGNKEY, and pReferencedTableID was not a null pointer.
ConstraintType was DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_FOREIGNKEY, and pReferencedTableID was NULL.
The type of the constraint was not a check constraint, and pwszConstraintText was not NULL.
ConstraintType wasDBCONSTRAINTTYPE_CHECK, and pwszConstraintText was a null pointer.
ConstraintType was DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_CHECK, and cColumns was not zero.
ConstraintType was DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_FOREIGNKEY, and cForeignKeyColumns was zero.
ConstraintType was DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_FOREIGNKEY, DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_PRIMARYKEY, or DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_UNIQUE and cColumns was zero.
In an element of rgColumnDescs, ConstraintType was DBCONSTRAINTTYPE_FOREIGNKEY, and the column type of a column in rgForeignKeyColumnList does not match the type of the corresponding column in rgColumnList.
DB_E_BADCONSTRAINTID
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, *pConstraintID was invalid.DB_E_BADCONSTRAINTTYPE
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, ConstraintType was invalid or not supported by the provider.DB_E_BADDEFERRABILITY
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, Deferrability was invalid or the value was not supported by the provider.DB_E_BADMATCHTYPE
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, MatchType was not ignored and was invalid or the value was not supported by the provider.DB_E_BADPRECISION
The precision in an element of rgColumnDescs was invalid.DB_E_BADPROPERTYVALUE
The value of a property was invalid.DB_E_BADSCALE
The scale in an element of rgColumnDescs was invalid.DB_E_BADTABLEID
*pTableID was an invalid table ID.DB_E_BADTYPE
One or more of the wType, pwszTypeName, and pTypeInfo elements in an element of rgColumnDescs was invalid.DB_E_BADUPDATEDELETERULE
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, UpdateRule or DeleteRule was not ignored and was invalid or the value was not supported by the provider.DB_E_DUPLICATECOLUMNID
dbcid was the same in two or more elements of rgColumnDescs.DB_E_DUPLICATECONSTRAINTID
In an element of rgConstraintDescs, the constraint was the same as an existing constraint, or the constraint ID was the same in two or more elements.DB_E_DUPLICATETABLEID
The specified table already exists in the data store.DB_E_ERRORSOCCURRED
The table was not created and no rowset was returned because one or more properties ? for which the dwOptions element of the DBPROP structure was DBPROPOPTIONS_REQUIRED or an invalid value ? were not set. The consumer checks dwStatus in the DBPROP structures to determine which properties were not set. None of the satisfiable properties are remembered. The method can fail to set properties for any of the reasons specified in DB_S_ERRORSOCCURRED, except the reason that states that it was not possible to set the property.DB_E_NOAGGREGATION
pUnkOuter was not a null pointer, and the provider is an OLE DB 1.0 or 1.1 provider that does not support aggregation of the rowset object being created.pUnkOuter was not a null pointer, and riid was not IID_IUnknown.
DB_E_NOTABLE
In one or more elements of rgConstraintDescs, the table referenced by *pReferencedTableID does not exist.DB_E_OBJECTOPEN
The provider would have to open a new connection to support the operation, and DBPROP_MULTIPLECONNECTIONS is set to VARIANT_FALSE.DB_E_SCHEMAVIOLATION
The type of the constraint conflicted with an attribute (for example, column type) of the referenced column.DB_SEC_E_PERMISSIONDENIED
The consumer did not have sufficient permission to create the table.XACT_E_XTIONEXISTS
The provider supports transactional DDL, the session is participating in a transaction, and the value of DBPROP_SUPPORTEDTXNDDL is DBPROPVAL_TC_DML.
Comments
If ppRowset is not a null pointer, an empty rowset is opened on the newly created table. If ITableDefinitionWithConstraints::CreateTableWithConstraints returns any errors, the table is not created nor are any relationships on that table created.
ITableDefinitionWithConstraints::CreateTableWithConstraints is similar to ITableDefinition::CreateTable except that it also provides the ability to create constraints such as primary keys, foreign keys, unique clauses, or check clauses in the same call as the creation of the table. This closely mimics the functionality of the CREATE TABLE SQL statement.
If the session is participating in a transaction, if DBPROP_SUPPORTEDTXNDDL is DBPROPVAL_TC_DDL_IGNORE, and if the method succeeds, the operation is complete and is unaffected by subsequent calls to abort or commit the transaction.
If the session is participating in a transaction, if DBPROP_SUPPORTEDTXNDDL is DBPROPVAL_TC_DDL_COMMIT, and if the method succeeds, the transaction is committed without retention. No new transaction is created. Any new work done on the session is outside the scope of a transaction. Attempting to explicitly commit or abort when there is no outstanding transaction returns an error.
