GetMark Method

Applies To

ODynaset

Description

This method returns an ODynasetMark on the current record.

Usage

ODynasetMark GetMark(void) const

Remarks

This method returns an ODynasetMark object referring to the current record. The current record must be valid; you cannot get a mark on a deleted record or when the dynaset is after the last record (IsEOF is TRUE) or before the first record (IsBOF is TRUE).

See ODynasetMark for more information on marks.

You can use the mark with the MoveToMark method to set the current record back to the marked record.

Return Value

An ODynasetMark, which will be open on success, closed on failure.

Example

This example demonstrates GetMark.

// open a database

ODatabase odb("ExampleDB", "scott", "tiger");

ODynaset empdyn(odb, "select * from emp");

// navigate to an interesting record

empdyn.MoveNext();

// get a mark on this record

ODynasetMark record1 = empdyn.GetMark();

// go somewhere else

empdyn.MoveLast();

empdyn.MovePrev();

// return to where we were

empdyn.MoveToMark(record1);
