Schema Collections

The Schema collections return metadata for the Advanced SQL Engine objects. The notable metadata columns for the Interval Day-to-Second data type are:

Column Name	Description
COLUMN_TYPE or DATA_TYPE	Set to INTERVAL DAY TO SECOND.
FORMAT	Format assigned to the SQL Engine object.
PROVIDERDBTYPE	It is set to TdType.IntervalDayToSecond.
DATETIME_PRECISION	The maximum number of digits for the fractional-second component.
INTERVAL_PRECISION	The maximum number of digits for the Day component.

Schema Table

The TdDataReader.SchemaTable returns result set metadata. The notable metadata columns for the Interval Day-to-Second data type are:

Column Name	Description
NumericPrecision	The maximum number of digits for the Day component.
NumericScale	The maximum number of digits for the fractional-second component.
DataType	System.Type object for the System.TimeSpan structure.
ProviderType	Set to TdType.IntervalDayToSecond.
Format	Format assigned to the SQL Engine object.
ProviderSpecificDataType	System.Type object for the TdIntervalDayToSecond structure.

Configuring Parameters

The following example shows how to configure an Interval Day-to-Second parameter using DbType type declaration and a Base Class Library (BCL) value. The TdParameter.Precision property reflects the maximum number of digits for the Day component and it must be equal to or less than the target SQL Engine object (i.e. Column, Expression, Stored Procedure Parameters and etc.) declaration. The range of values are from One to Four. The TdParameter.Scale property reflects the maximum number of digits for the fractional-second component and it must be equal to or less than the target SQL Engine object (i.e. Column, Expression, Stored Procedure Parameters and etc.) declaration.

Note
The Data Provider will throw an exception if the Day component of the System.TimeSpan value is greater than 9,999 Days. The Data Provider will throw an exception if the System.TimeSpan.Days property is greater than the maximum permissible value specified by TdParameter.Precision property.

Note
The Data Provider truncates the fractional seconds to the Scale specified.

C#	Copy Code
TdParameter deliveryInterval = new TdParameter(); deliveryInterval.ParameterName = "deliveryDaysAndMinute"; deliveryInterval.DbType = DbType.Object; // Maximum number of Day digits deliveryInterval.Precision = 2; // Maximum number of Fractional-Second digits deliveryInterval.Scale = 3; // 9 Days, 12 Hours, 35 Minutes, 3 seconds and 10 milliseconds. deliveryInterval.Value = new System.TimeSpan(9, 12, 35, 3, 10);

Copy Code

TdParameter deliveryInterval = new TdParameter();
deliveryInterval.ParameterName = "deliveryDaysAndMinute";

deliveryInterval.DbType = DbType.Object;

// Maximum number of Day digits
deliveryInterval.Precision = 2;

// Maximum number of Fractional-Second digits
deliveryInterval.Scale = 3;

// 9 Days, 12 Hours, 35 Minutes, 3 seconds and 10 milliseconds.
deliveryInterval.Value = new System.TimeSpan(9, 12, 35, 3, 10);

The following example shows how to configure an Interval Day-to-Second parameter using TdType type declaration and a Provider Specific value. It is recommend to always set TdParameter.Precision and TdParameter.Scale properties, however the Data Provider will utilize TdIntervalDayToSecond.Precision and TdIntervalDayToSecond.Scale property values when the TdParameter.Precision and TdParameter.Scale properties are set to zero. .NET Applications can retrieve metadata from the Schema Collections or the Schema Table and apply the metadata to the TdParameter object.

Note
The Data Provider will throw an exception if the Interval Day Component is greater than the maximum permissible value specified by the TdParameter.Precision property.

Note
The Data Provider truncates the fractional seconds to the Scale specified.

C#	Copy Code
TdParameter deliveryInterval = new TdParameter(); deliveryInterval.ParameterName = "deliveryDaysToSecond"; deliveryInterval.TdType = TdType.IntervalDayToSecond; // Maximum number of digits for the Day component deliveryInterval.Precision = 2; // Maximum number of digits for the Fractional-Second component deliveryInterval.Scale = 6; // 9 Days, 12 Hours, 35 Minutes, 3 seconds and 10 microseconds . deliveryInterval.ProviderSpecificValue = new TdIntervalDayToSecond(9, 12, 35, 3, 10);

Copy Code

TdParameter deliveryInterval = new TdParameter();
deliveryInterval.ParameterName = "deliveryDaysToSecond";

deliveryInterval.TdType = TdType.IntervalDayToSecond;

// Maximum number of digits for the Day component
deliveryInterval.Precision = 2;

// Maximum number of digits for the Fractional-Second component
deliveryInterval.Scale = 6;

// 9 Days, 12 Hours, 35 Minutes, 3 seconds and 10 microseconds  .
deliveryInterval.ProviderSpecificValue = new TdIntervalDayToSecond(9, 12, 35, 3, 10);

Specifying Interval Day To Second as Literal

The syntax for the Interval Day-to-Second Literal is INTERVALsign'dddd hh:mi:ss.ffffff'DAY TO SECOND. Interval Day-to-Second literals consist of the word Interval followed by an optional negative sign, character string literal representation of the number Days (up to 4 digits ranging from 0 to 9999), Hours (2 digits ranging from 00 to 23), Minutes (2 digits ranging from 00 to 59), Seconds (2 digits ranging from 00 to 59) and Fractional-Seconds (up to 6 digits ranging from 0 to 999999) and the phrase Day To Second.

Note
We recommend to always use Parameters in order to take advantage of the SQL Engine's Request Cache.

The following example shows 10 Days, 3 hours, 59 Minutes, 3 seconds and 10 milliseconds represented as Interval Day-to-Second Literal in the Command Text.

C#	Copy Code
using (TdConnection cn = new TdConnection("data source=x;UserId=y;Password=z;")) { cn.Open(); TdCommand cmd = cn.CreateCommand(); // Delivery exceeding 10 days, 3 hours, 59 minutes, 3 seconds and 10 milliseconds. cmd.CommandText = "SELECT Id, orderDate from Order where (CURRENT_DATE - OrderTimestamp) > INTERVAL'10 03:59:03.010'DAY TO SECOND "; using (TdDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader()) { if (reader.HasRows) { while (reader.Read()) { Console.WriteLine("Id={0}", reader.GetInt64(0).ToString()); } } } }

Copy Code

using (TdConnection cn = new TdConnection("data source=x;UserId=y;Password=z;"))
{
    cn.Open();
    TdCommand cmd = cn.CreateCommand();

    // Delivery exceeding 10 days, 3 hours, 59 minutes, 3 seconds and 10 milliseconds.
    cmd.CommandText = "SELECT Id, orderDate from Order where (CURRENT_DATE - OrderTimestamp) > INTERVAL'10 03:59:03.010'DAY TO SECOND ";

    using (TdDataReader reader = cmd.ExecuteReader())
    {
        if (reader.HasRows)
        {
            while (reader.Read())
            {
                Console.WriteLine("Id={0}", reader.GetInt64(0).ToString());
            }
        }
    }
}
