DBGetResultHandler

Return a pointer to a result handler

#include <DatabaseAccess.h> Data Access Manager

OSErr DBGetResultHandler( dataType, theHandler, getSysHandler);

DBType dataType; specifies the data type

ProcPtr *theHandler; is a pointer to the result handler

Boolean getSysHandler; specifies the type of result handler

returns Error Code; 0=no error

The DBGetResultHandler function returns a pointer to a result handler for

the data type specified with the dataType parameter. The pointer is returned in

the parameter theHandler. You can use this function to obtain a pointer to a

result handler so that you can use it to convert to text an individual data item

retrieved by the DBGetItem function. The DBGetQueryResults function

automatically converts to text all of the data pointed to by the results record.

dataType specifies the data type for which the result handler is being

retrieved.

theHandler is a pointer to the result handler.

getSysHandler If you set the getSysHandler parameter to FALSE (0), the function

returns a pointer to the current application result handler for the

specified data type, or it returns NIL if there is no application result

handler for that data type. If you set the getSysHandler parameter to

TRUE ( nonzero), the function returns a pointer to the current

system result handler for the specified data type, or it returns NIL if

there is no system result handler for that data type.

Returns: an operating system Error Code.

noErr (0) No error

rcDBNoHandler (-811) There is no handler for this data type installed for the

current application

rcDBPackNotInited (-813) The InitDBPack function has not yet been called
