Database access functions 95
Returns
An array of procedure objects where each procedure object has the following set of three
properties:
Example
The following code gets a list of procedures:
var procObjects = MMDB.getProcedures(connectionName);
for (i = 0; i < procObjects.length; i++)
{
var thisProcedure = procObjects[i]
thisSchema = Trim(thisProcedure.schema)
if (thisSchema.length == 0)
{
thisSchema = Trim(thisProcedure.catalog)
}
if (thisSchema.length > 0)
{
thisSchema += "."
}
var procName = String(thisSchema + thisProcedure.procedure);
}
Property Name Description
schema*
* Dreamweaver connects to and gets all the tables in the database whenever you modify a recordset. If the
database has many tables, Dreamweaver might take a long time to retrieve them on certain systems. If your
database contains a schema or catalog, you can use the schema or catalog to restrict the number of database
items Dreamweaver gets at design time. You must first create a schema or catalog in your database application
before you can apply it in Dreamweaver. Consult your database documentation or your system administrator.
Name of the schema that is associated with the object.
This property identifies the user that is associated with the stored
procedure in the SQL database that the
getProcedures()
function accesses. The database that this function accesses
depends on the type of connection.
• For ODBC connections, the ODBC data source defines the
database. The DSN is specified by the
dsn property in the
connection object (
connName) that you pass to the
getProcedures() function.
• For OLE DB connections, the connection string names the
database.
catalog
Name of the catalog that is associated with the object (owner
qualifier).
The value of the
catalog property is defined by an attribute of the
OLE DB driver. This driver attribute defines a default
user.database property to use when the OLE DB connection
string does not specify a database.
procedure
Name of the procedure.
