Libraries.Data.Database.Support.Parameter

This is a support class mainly used for Inserts and Updates. This is used internally and not exposed to the user. This class holds a value that would typically be used to set to a row in a column. For example if a column needs to be set to 4, a parameter object will be created with the value 4 as an integer stored and the type of this parameter is set to Integer. Then the queries can grab that value as text for when it's written out and then use this class to check if the type is compatible to the type of the column this needs to be set to.

This action compares two object hash codes and returns an integer. The result is larger if this hash code is larger than the object passed as a parameter, smaller, or equal. In this case, -1 means smaller, 0 means equal, and 1 means larger. This action was changed in Quorum 7 to return an integer, instead of a CompareResult object, because the previous implementation was causing efficiency issues.

Example Code

Object o
        Object t
        integer result = o:Compare(t) //1 (larger), 0 (equal), or -1 (smaller)

This action determines if two objects are equal based on their hash code values.

Example Code

use Libraries.Language.Object
        use Libraries.Language.Types.Text
        Object o
        Text t
        boolean result = o:Equals(t)

Given a raw type this will check if the internal type here is compatible with the raw type as mapped to Quorum.

Returns the value as text no matter what type the value actually is

This action gets the hash code for an object.

Example Code

Object o
        integer hash = o:GetHashCode()
