Working with local SQL databases in AIR
The following code listing demonstrates the same techniques as the preceding one, but uses synchronous execution
mode. The example defines a SQLStatement instance whose text is a SELECT statement. The statement retrieves rows
containing the firstName and lastName column values of all the rows of a table named employees. The resulting
rows of data are accessed using SQLStatement.getResult() and displayed using the trace() method. Note that this
listing assumes there is a SQLConnection instance named conn that has already been instantiated and is already
connected to the database. It also assumes that the “employees” table has already been created and populated with data.
import flash.data.SQLConnection;
import flash.data.SQLResult;
import flash.data.SQLStatement;
import flash.errors.SQLError;
// ... create and open the SQLConnection instance named conn ...
// create the SQL statement
var selectStmt:SQLStatement = new SQLStatement();
selectStmt.sqlConnection = conn;
// define the SQL text
var sql:String =
"SELECT firstName, lastName " +
"FROM employees";
selectStmt.text = sql;
try
{
// execute the statement
selectStmt.execute();
// access the result data
var result:SQLResult = selectStmt.getResult();
var numRows:int = result.data.length;
for (var i:int = 0; i < numRows; i++)
{
var output:String = "";
for (var columnName:String in result.data[i])
{
output += columnName + ": " + result.data[i][columnName] + "; ";
}
trace("row[" + i.toString() + "]\t", output);
}
}
catch (error:SQLError)
{
trace("Error message:", error.message);
trace("Details:", error.details);
}
