The SQLSchema class is the base class for schema information for database objects such as tables, views, and indices.

To obtain schema information for a database, use the SQLConnection.loadSchema() method to load the schema information. The resulting SQLSchemaResult instance contains arrays of instances representing the objects in the database.

Generally, developer code does not construct SQLSchema instances directly.

Property Detail
AIR-only 

database

property
database:String  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0

The name of the database to which this schema object belongs. The name is "main" for the main database associated with a SQLConnection instance (the database file that is opened by calling a SQLConnection instance's open() or openAsync() method). For other databases that are attached to the connection using the SQLConnection.attach() method, the value is the name specified in the attach() method call.



Implementation
    public function get database():String

AIR-only 

name

property 
name:String  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0

The name of this schema object. Each object within a database has a unique name. The name is defined in the SQL statement that creates the object (such as the CREATE TABLE statement for a table).

For example, if a database index is created using the following SQL statement, the value of the name property for that index's schema would be "customer_index":

CREATE INDEX customer_index ON customers (id)



Implementation
    public function get name():String
AIR-only 

sql

property 
sql:String  [read-only]

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0

Returns the entire text of the SQL statement that was used to create this schema object. Each object within a database is created using a SQL statement.

For example, if a database index is created using the following SQL:

CREATE INDEX customer_index ON customers (id)

the sql property for that index's schema would be the entire text of the statement.



Implementation
    public function get sql():String

SQLSchema

()Constructor
public function SQLSchema(database:String, name:String, sql:String)

Language Version: ActionScript 3.0
Runtime Versions: AIR 1.0

Creates a SQLSchema instance. Generally, developer code does not call the SQLSchema constructor directly. To obtain schema information for a database, call the SQLConnection.loadSchema() method.

Parameters
database:String — The name of the associated database.
 
name:String — The name of the database object.
 
sql:String — The SQL used to construct the database object.
