Hi all!
Delphi 7, Zeos 6.6.4-stable, PostgreeSQL 8.4
Thanks for your project, he has very much helped me!
At transition with MySQL on PostgreSQL has faced such problem:
Code: Select all
CREATE TYPE TTestType AS ENUM ('z', 'x', 'c');
CREATE TABLE TestTable (
ID integer PRIMARY KEY,
t TTestType
);
INSERT INTO TestTable VALUES ('1', 'z'), ('2', 'x'), ('3', 'c'), ('4', 'c');
From PGAdmin III
Code: Select all
SELECT * FROM TestTable;
id | t
------
1 | z
2 | x
3 | c
4 | c
In Delphi using ZQuery this SELECT create only a field "id" and the field "t" is absent. Tell please what to do?
Thanks.

Zeos 6.6.x don't work with enum types. Maybe you can work around the problem with typecasting eg.
Code: Select all
select id, cast(t as char) as t from TestTable

Though the real problem is much more difficult than an example (((
While has solved a problem another by - has created two tables:
BaseEnumTypes and BaseEnumValues.
With impatience I wait for support of types ENUM - since this type very convenient in use.
Thanks!

Open file src\dbc\ZdbcPostgresql.pas and change
function TZPostgreSQLConnection.GetTypeNameByOid(Id: Oid): string;
var
I, Index: Integer;
QueryHandle: PZPostgreSQLResult;
SQL: PAnsiChar;
TypeCode, BaseTypeCode: Integer;
TypeName: string;

if BaseTypeCode <> 0 then
begin
Index := FTypeList.IndexOfObject(TObject(BaseTypeCode));
if Index >= 0 then
TypeName := FTypeList[Index]
else
TypeName := '';
end;
FTypeList.AddObject(TypeName, TObject(TypeCode));
end;
FPlainDriver.Clear(QueryHandle);
end;
I := FTypeList.IndexOfObject(TObject(Id));
if I >= 0 then
Result := FTypeList

Result := '';

Open file src\dbc\ZDbcPostgreSqlMetadata.pas and change

case Result of
stString: Result := stUnicodeString;
stAsciiStream: Result := stUnicodeStream;
end;
end;
In order to test I added the following procedure in ZTestDbcPostgreSql.pas
procedure TZTestDbcPostgreSQLCase.TestEnumValues;
var
Statement: IZStatement;
ResultSet: IZResultSet;
begin
Statement := Connection.CreateStatement;
CheckNotNull(Statement);
Statement.SetResultSetType(rtScrollInsensitive);
Statement.SetResultSetConcurrency(rcUpdatable);
// Select case
ResultSet := Statement.ExecuteQuery('SELECT * FROM extension where ext_id = 1');
CheckNotNull(ResultSet);
ResultSet.First;
Check(ResultSet.GetInt(1) = 1);
CheckEquals('Car', ResultSet.GetString(2));
ResultSet.Close;
Statement.Close;
// Update case
ResultSet := Statement.ExecuteQuery('UPDATE extension set ext_enum = ''House'' where ext_id = 1');
ResultSet.Close;
ResultSet := Statement.ExecuteQuery('SELECT * FROM extension where ext_id = 1');
CheckNotNull(ResultSet);
ResultSet.First;
Check(ResultSet.GetInt(1) = 1);
CheckEquals('House', ResultSet.GetString(2));
ResultSet.Close;
Statement.Close;
// Insert case
ResultSet := Statement.ExecuteQuery('DELETE FROM extension where ext_id = 1');
ResultSet.Close;
ResultSet := Statement.ExecuteQuery('INSERT INTO extension VALUES(1,''Car'')');
ResultSet.Close;
ResultSet := Statement.ExecuteQuery('SELECT * FROM extension where ext_id = 1');
CheckNotNull(ResultSet);
ResultSet.First;
Check(ResultSet.GetInt(1) = 1);
CheckEquals('Car', ResultSet.GetString(2));
ResultSet.Close;
Statement.Close;
end;
Attach you find the sql code in order to populate the example table

SVN rev 769 (Testing branch)
Thanks for the patch.
Some comments:
- If somebody wants this feature ported to the 6.6-patches branch : please patch, test and send me the exact changes (files or SVN diff)
- seawolf, can you avoid execution of the tests only when the server version is right? (I'm testing with 83.4, so didn't have any trouble)
Mark

At the moment I think is not necessary because if no enum fields are found nothing is done.
Anyway the problem is to implement, on the metadata, function added with Postgres 8.3, necessary if someone wants to know all the field are contained in an enum. So in this case it necessary to check which Postgres version is installed
