I want to insert a string ,like Hello ,I am "Tmacy"!,into a sqlite3 table.But I can't find a way to insert the ".(ps.I tried to use \" instead of ", but it doesn't word.). Note:I use the C/C++ API function sqlite3_exec to insert the string into sqlite table.If you insert it with the sqlite3 command , it may works .
like that:
sprintf(sqlcmd,"insert into dict values('%s','%s')",word,meaning);
if(sqlite3_exec(data,sqlcmd,NULL,NULL,&errmsg) != SQLITE_OK){
printf("insert error!:%s\n",errmsg);
}else{
printf("insert success!\n");
}
Thanks!
The sqlite3_mprintf function has formats like %Q that allow you to format strings correctly:
char *sql = sqlite3_mprintf("INSERT INTO dict VALUES(%Q,%Q)", word, meaning);
err = sqlite3_exec(data, sql, NULL, NULL, &errmsg);
sqlite3_free(sql);
Try repeating the quote instead of escaping it :-

You'd be better off using parameters here, it's safer then simply making slight changes to the text strings so that " and such don't cause a crash. Some sample code of using parameters in one of my own projects, in VB .net.
Public Sub RunSQLiteCommand(ByVal CommandText As String, Optional ByVal ReadDataCommand As Boolean = False, Optional ByVal ParameterList As Hashtable = Nothing)
SQLcommand.Parameters.Clear()
SQLcommand.CommandText = CommandText
If ParameterList IsNot Nothing Then
For Each key As String In ParameterList.Keys
SQLcommand.Parameters.Add(New SQLite.SQLiteParameter(key, ParameterList(key)))
Next
End If
SQLcommand.ExecuteNonQuery()
If ReadDataCommand Then
SQLreader = SQLcommand.ExecuteReader()
End If
End Sub
If you really want to avoid using parameters though, then "" (two of them) would be the way to go. If I'm ever not using parameters I run all string values I'm inserting into the database through a function that replaces " with "" everywhere in the string value.
Edit: Oh yeah, I almost forgot. For using parameters, your key value should be '#FieldName', and your SQL Query should say '#FieldName' wherever you use that parameter.
So for example if you call your field 'Name' that you want to insert the " in, you'd have something like this for insert query.
insert into dict values(#Name, #OtherField)
You could call your parameter anything you want, it's just easier if you name it the same thing as the field you're loading the value into.

I have a query called qryAlloc_Source that has two paramaters under one criteria:
>=[forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocStart] And <=[forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocEnd])
A have a separate query that ultimately references qryAlloc_Source (there are a couple queries in between), and that query runs fine when I double click it in the UI, but if I try to open it in VBA, I get an error. My code is:
Dim rst As Recordset
Set rst = CurrentDb.OpenRecordset("qryAlloc_Debits")
I am getting run-time error 3061, Too few parameters. Expected 2. I've read that I may need to build out the SQL in VBA using the form parameters, but it would be pretty complex SQL given that there are a few queries in the chain.
Any suggestions as to a workaround? I considered using VBA to create a table from the query and then just referencing that table--I hate to make extra steps though.
The reason you get the error when you just try to open the recordset is that your form is not open and when you try to access [forms]![frmReportingMain] it's null then you try to get a property on that null reference and things blow up. The OpenRecordset function has no way of poping up a dialog box to prompt for user inputs like the UI does if it gets this error.
You can change your query to use parameters that are not bound to a form
yourTableAllocStart >= pAllocStart
and yourTableAllocEnd <= pAllocEnd
Then you can use this function to get the recordset of that query.
Function GetQryAllocDebits(pAllocStart As String, pAllocEnd As String) As DAO.Recordset
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdef As DAO.QueryDef
Set db = CurrentDb
Set qdef = db.QueryDefs("qryAlloc_Debits")
qdef.Parameters.Refresh
qdef.Parameters("pAllocStart").Value = pAllocStart
qdef.Parameters("pAllocEnd").Value = pAllocEnd
Set GetQryAllocDebits = qdef.OpenRecordset
End Function
The disadvantage to this is that when you call this now on a form that is bound to it it doesn't dynamically 'fill in the blanks' for you.
In that case you can bind forms qryAlloc_debts and have no where clause on the saved query, then use the forms Filter to make your where clause. In that instance you can use your where clause exactly how you have it written.
Then if you want to still open a recordset you can do it like this
Function GetQryAllocDebits(pAllocStart As String, pAllocEnd As String) As DAO.Recordset
Dim qdef As DAO.QueryDef
Set qdef = New DAO.QueryDef
qdef.SQL = "Select * from qryAlloc_Debits where AllocStart >= pAllocStart and pAllocEnd <= pAllocEnd"
qdef.Parameters.Refresh
qdef.Parameters("pAllocStart").Value = pAllocStart
qdef.Parameters("pAllocEnd").Value = pAllocEnd
Set GetQryAllocDebits = qdef.OpenRecordset
End Function
While a [Forms]!... reference does default to a form reference when a QueryDef is run from the GUI, it is actually just another Parameter in the query in VBA. The upshot is you don't have to recode your query/create a new one at all. Also, as #Brad mentioned, whether a parameter is in the final query of a chain of queries or not, you are able to refer to the parameter as if it is in the collection of the final query. That being the case, you should be able to use code similar to this:
Sub GetQryAllocDebits(dteAllocStart As Date, dteAllocEnd as Date)
Dim db As DAO.Database
Dim qdf As DAO.QueryDef
Dim rst As DAO.Recordset
Set db = CurrentDb()
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs("qryAlloc_Debit")
If CurrentProject.AllForms("frmReportingMain").IsLoaded Then
qdf.Parameters("[forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocStart]") = [forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocStart]
qdf.Parameters("[forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocEnd]") = [forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocEnd]
Else
qdf.Parameters("[forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocStart]") = CStr(dteAllocStart)
qdf.Parameters("[forms]![frmReportingMain]![txtAllocEnd]") = CStr(dteAllocEnd)
End If
Set rst = qdf.OpenRecordset
Do Until rst.EOF
'...do stuff here.
Loop
Set rst = Nothing
Set qdf = Nothing
Set db = Nothing
End Function
If the referenced form is open, the code is smart enough to use the referenced controls on the form. If not, it will use the dates supplied to the subroutine as parameters. A gotcha here is that the parameters did not like when I set them as date types (#xx/xx/xx#), even if the field were dates. It only seemed to work properly if I set the params as strings. It didn't seem to be an issue when pulling the values straight out of the controls on the forms, though.
I know it's been a while since this was posted, but I'd like to throw in my tuppence worth as I'm always searching this problem:
A stored query can be resolved:
Set db = CurrentDb
Set qdf = db.QueryDefs(sQueryName)
For Each prm In qdf.Parameters
prm.Value = Eval(prm.Name)
Next prm
Set rst = qdf.OpenRecordset
For SQL:
Set db = CurrentDb
Set qdf = db.CreateQueryDef("", "SELECT * FROM MyTable " & _
"WHERE ID = " & Me.lstID & _
" AND dWeekCommencing = " & CDbl(Me.frm_SomeForm.Controls("txtWkCommencing")) & _
" AND DB_Status = 'Used'")
For Each prm In qdf.Parameters
prm.Value = Eval(prm.Name)
Next prm
Set rst = qdf.OpenRecordset
This assumes that all parameter values are accessible - i.e. forms are open and controls have values.

I have the following JSON in asp.net VB:
Dim jsonString As String = "{'results':[ {'comments': 'some text', 'date' : 'some date', 'user':'aaa'},{'comments': 'some text2', 'date2' : 'some date2', 'user':'aaa2'}]} "
Dim json As JObject = JObject.Parse(jsonString)
How can I loop though the values like comments?
Thank you
The Newtonsoft documentation pages Querying JSON with LINQ and Querying JSON with SelectToken describe how you can query for values nested inside a JObject hierarchy once loaded.
For instance, using SelectTokens(), you can query for the comment values as follows:
' Get all comment values, convert them to simple strings, and store in an array:
Dim comments = json.SelectTokens("results[*].comments") _
.Select(Function(t) t.ToString()) _
.ToArray()
Here I am using the wildcard operator [*] to match all elements in the "results" array. This is a standard operator of JSONPath query syntax which SelectTokens() supports.
Here is the equivalent logic using LINQ:
Dim query = From item In json("results")
Let comment = item("comments")
Where comment IsNot Nothing
Select CType(comment, String)
Dim comments = query.ToArray()
Sample fiddle.
Is it possible to check if a named field is within a record set?
EG id, field1, field2, field3 have been selected. Is it possible for VBScript to detect if field2 has been selected. I am also hoping this is possible without looping
Please assume I dont know, nor can see the actual SELECT. I need to detect this after the query has been executed.
This is how its done using a loop, I am also hoping this is possible without looping:
dim rs,field,foundField
sql = "SELECT * from table;"
set rs = conn.execute(sql)
For Each field in rs.Fields
if field.Name = "someFieldName" then
foundField = true
exit for
else
foundField = false
end if
next

I use a similar function (in VB6) to the one proposed by bfavaretto... I'm curious why the OP says it doesn't work?
Public Function FieldExists(ByVal rs As Recordset, ByVal fieldName As String) As Boolean
On Error GoTo merr
FieldExists = rs.Fields(fieldName).name <> ""
Exit Function
merr:
FieldExists = False
End Function
This function works for me... and it doesn't return false negatives as far as I know. Also, it appears to be faster than executing a loop for fields that are included in the collection; for fields that are actually missing, the execution times of both methods seems to be equivalent.
EDIT
For VBScript, the above function would look like this:
Function FieldExists(ByVal rs, ByVal fieldName)
On Error Resume Next
FieldExists = rs.Fields(fieldName).name <> ""
If Err <> 0 Then FieldExists = False
Err.Clear
End Function
And the code posted in the question would look like:
dim rs,field,foundField
sql = "SELECT * from table;"
set rs = conn.execute(sql)
foundField = FieldExists(rs, "someFieldName")
I think you need the loop. Found this on MSDN (emphasis mine):
Most of the ASP built-in objects provide collections. Collections are
data structures similar to arrays that store strings, numbers, objects
and other values. Unlike arrays, collections expand and contract
automatically as items are retrieved or stored. The position of an
item will also move as the collection is modified. You can access an
item in a collection by its unique string key, by its index (position)
in the collection, or by iterating through all the items in the
collection.
In any case, you could try this (untested):
dim rs,field,foundField
sql = "SELECT * from table;"
set rs = conn.execute(sql)
if rs.Fields("someFieldName") then
' ... if this doesn't crash, it may return
' false negatives for columns containing null or 0
end if
I have a FormView where I pull data from one table (MS Access), and then insert it (plus more data) into another table. I'm having issues with the dates.
The first table has two date fields: date_submitted and date_updated. In some records, date_updated is blank. This causes me to get a data mismatch error when attempting to insert into the second table.
It might be because I'm databinding the date_updated field from the first table into a HiddenField on the FormView. It then takes the value from the HiddenField and attempts to insert it into the second table:
Dim hfDateRequestUpdated As HiddenField = FormView1.FindControl("hfDateRequestUpdated")
myDateRequestUpdated = hfDateRequestUpdated.Value
'... It then attempts to insert myDateRequestUpdated into the database.
It works when there is a value there, but apparently you can't insert nothing into a date/time field in Access. I suppose I could make a second insert statement that does not insert into date_updated (to use when there is no value indate_updated), but is that the only way to do it? Seems like there should be an easier/less redundant way.
EDIT:
Okay. So I've tried inserting SqlDateTime.Null, Nothing, and DBNull.Value. SqlDateTime.Null results in the value 1/1/1900 being inserted into the database. "Nothing" causes it to insert 1/1/2001. And if I try to use DBNull.Value, it tells me that it cannot be converted to a string, so maybe I didn't do something quite right there. At any rate, I was hoping that if there was nothing to insert that the field in Access would remain blank, but it seems that it has to fill it with something...
EDIT:
I got DBNull.Value to work, and it does insert a completely blank value. So this is my final working code:
Dim hfDateRequestUpdated As HiddenField = FormView1.FindControl("hfDateRequestUpdated")
Dim myDateRequestUpdated = Nothing
If hfDateRequestUpdated.Value = Nothing Then
myDateRequestUpdated = DBNull.Value
Else
myDateRequestUpdated = DateTime.Parse(hfDateRequestUpdated.Value)
End If
Thanks everyone!
Sara, have you tried casting the date/time before you update it? The data mismatch error likely comes from the fact that the hfDateRequestUpdated.Value you're trying to insert into the database doesn't match the column type.
Try stepping through your code and seeing what the type of that value is. If you find that it's a string (which it seems it might be, since it's coming from a field on a form), then you will need a check first to see if that field is the empty string (VBNullString). If so, you will want to change the value you're inserting into the database to DBNull, which you can get in VB.Net using DBNull.Value.
We can't see your code, so we don't know exactly how you get the value into the database, but it would look something like this
If theDateValueBeingInserted is Nothing Then
theDateValueBeingInserted = DBNull.Value
EndIf
Keep in mind that the above test only works if the value you get from the HiddenField is a string, which I believe it is according to the documentation. That's probably where all this trouble you're having is coming from. You're implicitly converting your date/time values to a string (which is easy), but implicitly converting them back isn't so easy, especially if the initial value was a DBNull
aside
I think what Marshall was trying to suggest was the equivalent of the above code, but in a shortcut expression called the 'ternary operator', which looks like this in VB.Net:
newValue = IF(oldValue is Nothing ? DBNull.Value : oldValue)
I wouldn't recommend it though, since it's confusing to new programmers, and the syntax changed in 2008 from IFF(condition ? trueResult : falseResult)
Your code
Dim myDateRequestUpdated As DateTime
myDateRequestUpdated = DateTime.Parse(hfDateRequestUpdated.Value) : DBNull.Value()
has a couple of problems:
When you declare myDateRequestUpdated to be DateTime, you can't put a DbNull.Value in it.
I'm not sure you need the () for DbNull.Value: it's a property, not a method (I don't know enough VB to say for sure)
VB doesn't know that : operator
What you probably want is a Nullable(Of DateTime) to store a DateTime value that can also be missing.
Then use something like this to store the value:
myDateRequestUpdated = If(String.IsNullOrWhiteSpace(hfDateRequestUpdated.Value),
Nothing, DateTime.Parse(hfDateRequestUpdated.Value))
If hfDateRequestUpdated.Value is empty, then use Nothing as the result; else parse the value as date (which might fail if it is not a valid date!).
Try this:
Protected Sub Button2_Click(ByVal sender As Object, ByVal e As System.EventArgs) Handles Button2.Click
Dim str As String
If TextBox1.Text.Length <> 0 Then
str = "'" & TextBox1.Text & "'"
Else
str = "NULL"
End If
sql = "insert into test(test1) values(" & str & ")"
dsave_sql(sql)
End Sub
Function save_sql(ByVal strsql As String, Optional ByVal msg As String = "Record Saved Sucessfully") As String
Dim sqlcon As New SqlConnection(strConn)
Dim comm As New SqlCommand(strsql, sqlcon)
Dim i As Integer
Try
sqlcon.Open()
i = CType(comm.ExecuteScalar(), Integer)
save_sql = msg
Catch ex As Exception
save_sql = ex.Message
End Try
sqlcon.Close()
Return i

I wrote the following function that works about 95% of the time, but I need it to work 100% (obviously):
Public Shared Function getPassedVars() As String
Const keyCount As Integer = 54 ' 54 seems to be the number of parameter keys passed by default (for this web_app).
' there are more if there is a form involved (ie. from search page)
Dim oParams As String = ""
Try
With HttpContext.Current
If .Request.Params.AllKeys.Count > keyCount Then
For i As Integer = 0 To (.Request.Params.AllKeys.Count - (keyCount + 1))
oParams &= String.Format("{0}={1}{2}", .Request.Params.Keys.Item(i), .Request.Params(i), IIf(i < .Request.Params.AllKeys.Count - (keyCount + 1), ";", ""))
Next
End If
End With
Return oParams
Catch ex As Exception
Return Nothing
End Try
End Function
It scrubs the Request.Params object for passed variables, which are in the beginning of the array (the remaining ones are ASP parameters). I am pretty sure I've seen a different way to get these parameters, but I haven't been able to figure it out. Any suggestions?
EDIT
So it looks like I can use the Request.URL.Query to achieve this, I will investigate this and post back.
Here is what I came up with:
Public Shared Function getPassedVars() As String
Dim oParams As String = ""
Dim qString As String = ""
Dim oSplit As New List(Of String)
Try
With HttpContext.Current
qString = .Request.Url.Query
If qString.Length > 0 Then 'do we have any passed variables?
If qString.StartsWith("?") Then qString = qString.Remove(0, 1) 'remove leading ? from querystring if it is there
oSplit.AddRange(qString.Split("&"))
For i As Integer = 0 To oSplit.Count - 1
oParams &= String.Format("{0}{1}", oSplit.Item(i), IIf(i < oSplit.Count - 1, ";", ""))
Next
Return oParams
Else
Return Nothing
End If
End With
Catch ex As Exception
Return Nothing
End Try
End Function
So far so good.
Request.QueryString is a NameValueCollection, so the easiest way to get the "parameters" is to do the following:
foreach (String s in Request.QueryString) {
Response.Write(s + " = " + Request.QueryString[s]);
}
Where is your function located? If it's executing in the page's code behind then you definitely do not need to use the HttpContext variable.
It looks like you are trying to get values from the query string.
For example, for this URL:-
http://www.tempuri.org/mypage.aspx?param1=x¶m2=y
I assume you want retreive the values of the query string parameters param1 and param2?
If so, just use:-
Dim param1 as String = Request.QueryString("param1")
Otherwise, if these parameters are contained in a form (an HTTP POST request) then use the method which Mitchel Sellers suggests.
If you know the name you can use the following to get it by key value
Dim myParamValue as String = Request.Form("MyKeyName")
Otherwise, you can loop through the form collection, by key etc, to get the values. The key is, do you really need to be parsing all 54 items? Or are you simply looking for a few specific values?
httpcontext.Current.Request.QueryString("KeyName")
Request.Params will contain the query parameters you're after.
There's no need to parse the info from Request.URL since it's already done for you.
