In relational (and other) databases, table schema altering is not an easy task. + It may be considered as easy if there is no data that user wants to keep while + the table schema is altered. Otherwise, if the table is alredy filled with data, + there could be no easy algorithm like: + 1. Drop existing table + 2. Create new one with altered schema. + + Instead, more complex algorithm is needed. To perform the table schema alteration, + a list of well defined atomic operations is used as a "recipe". + + 1. Look at the current data, and: + 1.1. analyze what values will be removed (in case of impossible conversion + or table field removal); + 1.2. analyze what values can be converted (e.g. from numeric types to text), and so on. + 2. Optimize the atomic actions knowing that sometimes a compilation of one action + and another that's opposite to the first means "do nothing". The optimization + is a simulating of actions' execution. + For example, when both action A="change field name from 'city' to 'town'" + and action B="change field name from 'town' to 'city'" is specified, the compilation + of the actions means "change field name from 'city' to 'city'", what is a NULL action. + On the other hand, we need to execute all the actions on the destination table + in proper order, and not just drop them. For the mentioned example, between actions + A and B there can be an action like C="change the type of field 'city' to LongText". + If A and B were simply removed, C would become invalid (there is no 'city' field). + 3. Ask user whether she agrees with the results of analysis mentioned in 1. + 3.2. Additionally, it may be possible to get some hints from the user, as humans usually + know more about logic behind the altered table schema than any machine. + If the user provided hints about the altering, apply them to the actions list. + 4. Create (empty) destination table schema with temporary name, using + the information collected so far. + 5. Copy the data from the source to destionation table. Convert values, + move them between fields, using the information collected. + 6. Remove the source table. + 7. Rename the destination table to the name previously assigned for the source table. + + Notes: + * The actions 4 to 7 should be performed within a database transaction. + * [todo] We want to take care about database relationships as well. + For example, is a table field is removed, relationships related to this field should + be also removed (similar rules as in the Query Designer). + * Especially, care about primary keys and uniquess (indices). Recreate them when needed. + The problem could be if such analysis may require to fetch the entire table data + to the client side. Use "SELECT INTO" statments if possible to avoid such a treat. + + The AlterTableHandler is used in Kexi's Table Designer. + Already opened Connection object is needed. + + Use case: + \code + Connection *conn = ... + + // add some actions (in reality this is performed by tracking user's actions) + // Actions 1, 2 will require physical table altering PhysicalAltering + // Action 3 will only require changes in kexi__fields + // Action 4 will only require changes in extended table schema written in kexi__objectdata + AlterTable::ActionList list; + + // 1. rename the "city" field to "town" + list << new ChangeFieldPropertyAction("city", "name", "town") + + // 2. change type of "town" field to "LongText" + << new ChangeFieldPropertyAction("town", "type", "LongText") + + // 3. set caption of "town" field to "Town" + << new ChangeFieldPropertyAction("town", "caption", "Town") + + // 4. set visible decimal places to 4 for "cost" field + << new ChangeFieldPropertyAction("cost", "visibleDecimalPlaces", 4) + + AlterTableHandler::execute( *conn ); + + \endcode + + Actions for Alter +*/ +class KEXI_DB_EXPORT AlterTableHandler : public Object +{ + public: + class ChangeFieldPropertyAction; + class RemoveFieldAction; + class InsertFieldAction; + class MoveFieldPositionAction; + + //!
