unpublished interface XCopyTableWizard
Base Interfaces
XCopyTableWizard
┗ ::com::sun::star::ui::dialogs::XExecutableDialog

::com::sun::star::ui::dialogs::XExecutableDialog
(referenced interface's summary:)
Specifies an interface for an executable dialog.
Usage Restrictions
not published
Description
describes a wizard which can be used to copy table like data from one database to another.

Copying table data between databases can be a complex task. Especially when it comes to matching field types in the source and in the target database, some heuristics, and sometimes support from the user doing the operation, are required.

The copy table wizard described by this interfaces cares for those, and other, settings.

Since
OOo 2.4

Methods' Summary
addCopyTableListener adds a listener which is to be notified of progress in the copy operation  
removeCopyTableListener removes a listener  
Attributes' Summary
Operation specifies the basic operation for the wizard to execute.  
DestinationTableName specfies the name of the table in the destination database.  
CreatePrimaryKey specifies that a new primary key is to be created in the target database  
UseHeaderLineAsColumnNames specifies that the first row should be used to identify column names.  
Methods' Details
addCopyTableListener
void
addCopyTableListener( [in] XCopyTableListener  Listener );

Description
adds a listener which is to be notified of progress in the copy operation
removeCopyTableListener
void
removeCopyTableListener( [in] XCopyTableListener  Listener );

Description
removes a listener
Attributes' Details
Operation
short Operation
set raises (::com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException);

Description
specifies the basic operation for the wizard to execute.

This must be one of the CopyTableOperation constants.

At initialization time, you can use this attribute to control the initial operation in the wizard.

After the wizard has finished, you can use this attribute to determine what operation was actually executed.

Changing this attribute while the dialog is running is not supported, the result of such an attempt is undefined.

Throws
IllegalArgumentException if you attempt to set an invalid operation, or if the given operation is not supported by the target database type, e.g. if you specified CopyTableOperation::CreateAsView where the database does not support views.
DestinationTableName
string DestinationTableName;
Description
specfies the name of the table in the destination database.

At initialization time, you can use this attribute to control the initial table name as suggested to the user.

After the wizard has finished, you can use this attribute to determine what table was actually created resp. to which existing table the source table's data was appended.

Changing this attribute while the dialog is running is not supported, the result of such an attempt is undefined.

CreatePrimaryKey
::com::sun::star::beans::Optional< string > CreatePrimaryKey
set raises (::com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException);

Description
specifies that a new primary key is to be created in the target database

At initialization time, you can specify the initial settings for the primary key in the UI.

You cannot use this attribute to determine the primary key, possibly created by the wizard, after it finished. The reason is that during the wizard run, the user can define an arbitrarily complex primary key, e.g. including multiple columns, which cannot be represented in this simple attribute anymore.

This attribute is ignored if Operation is CopyTableOperation::AppendData.

Changing this attribute while the dialog is running is not supported, the result of such an attempt is undefined.

When a primary key is to be created by the wizard, it will be be an auto-increment column, if possible.

Throws
::com::sun::star::lang::IllegalArgumentException if the target database does not support primary keys
UseHeaderLineAsColumnNames
boolean UseHeaderLineAsColumnNames;
Description
specifies that the first row should be used to identify column names.

This attribute is ignored when the source defines the column names which isn't the case when only a part of a table should be copied e.g. in the RTF format or in the HTML format.
