HWrite (Function) In french: HEcrit
Not available with this kind of connection
Writes a record into a data file without updating the indexes corresponding to all keys used in the data file. The memos are added if necessary (if the management of memos is enabled, HSetMemo). After the call to HWrite: - integrity and duplicate errors are not checked.
- if a lock problem occurs (attempt to modify a locked record), HErrorLock returns True and the record is not modified.
- the number of the current record is modified: the current record corresponds to the record written.
Remarks: - To update the indexes during a write operation, use HAdd or HModify.
![OLE DB OLE DB](https://doc.windev.com/ext/images/us/OLEDB.png?-749475651) HWrite and HModify are equivalent. The indexes on the database are updated. - If a key value is modified with HWrite, the index will no longer be consistent. It must be re-indexed (HIndex).
- This function can be used to write a record into a selection performed by a query (query run with the hWithFilter constant).
// Write a record at the end of a data file HWrite(Customer, HNbRec() + 1)
Syntax
<Result> = HWrite([<Data file> [, <Record number> [, <Options>]]])
<Result>: Boolean - True if the writing was performed in the data file,
- False if an error occurred (lock, ...): the record is not modified. HError is used to identify the error.
<Data file>: Optional character string Name of the data file used. If this name is not specified, HWrite will use the last data file used by the last HFSQL function (function starting with "H"). <Record number>: Optional integer Number of the record to write. The record loaded in memory is re-written on the specified record. If this number is greater than the total number of records in the data file, intermediate deleted records will be created in order for the sequential reading of the data file (HRead) to be consistent. If this parameter is not specified (equal to 0 or to the hCurrentRecNum constant), HWrite modifies the current record in the data file.
<Options>: Combination of optional constants Configures:- the mode for calculating the automatic identifier: For more details on automatic identifiers for new records, see Managing the automatic identifier during an addition.
| | hForceIDAuto | The automatic identifier is not calculated during the write operation: The value of the identifier is the one stored during the write operation. | hRecalculateIDAuto | The automatic identifier of the record will be re-calculated during the write operation. This constant has priority over hForceIDAuto and hSetIDAuto. | hSetIDAuto | The automatic identifier is not calculated during the write operation: The value of the identifier is the one stored during the write operation. The next value of the identifier calculated by the HFSQL engine will correspond to the greatest value of the identifier in the file +1. | hWriteDefault (Default value) | If the written record is not a deleted record, the automatic identifier (if it exists) of the record in the data file is re-used. If the written record is a deleted record, a new automatic identifier is calculated for the record. The hWriteDefault constant is ignored if hWriteDefault is specified with one of the other constants. |
A WLanguage error is generated if the three constants (hForceIDAuto, hSetIDAuto and hRecalculateIDAuto) are used at the same time. - the lock mode applied to the record.
If no lock constant is specified, the record is not locked.
| | hLockNo (Default value) | No lock: the written record is not locked. | hLockReadWrite | Lock in read/write mode: the written record will be locked in read/write. This record cannot be read or modified by another application. Only the current application can modify it, read it or unlock it. | hLockWrite | Lock in write mode: the written record will be locked in write mode. This record can be read by another application but it cannot be modified by another application. Only the current application can modify it or unlock it. |
Remarks Managing automatic identifiers By default, the "automatic identifier" item is automatically updated when a record is added into a data file. The hForceIDAuto and hSetIDAuto constants are used to modify the default behavior of the automatic identifier. Managing binary memos When a record is modified, the memos are modified if necessary (if the management of memos is enabled by HSetMemo). Reminder: to initialize a binary memo item, use HLinkMemo.
