addRecords( ) method
addRecords( ) method
Reads a specified object and updates the local storage of the JSDO. This updates all
temp-tables read in for a ProDataSet or a specified temp-table, depending on how the
method is called. The data is merged into JSDO local storage and affects existing data
according to a specified merge mode and optional key fields.
After execution, the working record for each temp-table referenced by the JSDO is not
set.
Return type: null
Applies to: progress.data.JSDO class, table reference property (JSDO)
Syntax
[table-ref.]addRecords ( merge-object , add-mode [ , key-fields ] )
table-ref
A table reference on the JSDO. If you call the method on table-ref, the method
merges data only for the referenced temp-table. If you call the method on the
JSDO itself, the method merges data for all temp-tables referenced for a
ProDataSet.
merge-object
An object with the data to merge. If you call the method on table-ref, the object
can either be an object that contains an array of record objects to merge with the
referenced temp-table or a ProDataSet-formatted object containing such an array.
Note: This object must have a supported JavaScript object format that matches
the data returned from the built-in read operation (JSDO fill( ) method).
For example, the object returned from an invocation method for an output
temp-table or ProDataSet that has the same schema as supported output
from the built-in read operation should work.
