| <p>A <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#GRelation" title="GRelation"><span class="type">GRelation</span></a> is a table of data which can be indexed on any number |
| of fields, rather like simple database tables. A <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#GRelation" title="GRelation"><span class="type">GRelation</span></a> contains |
| a number of records, called tuples. Each record contains a number of |
| fields. Records are not ordered, so it is not possible to find the |
| record at a particular index.</p> |
| <p>Note that <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#GRelation" title="GRelation"><span class="type">GRelation</span></a> tables are currently limited to 2 fields.</p> |
| <p>To create a GRelation, use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-new" title="g_relation_new ()"><code class="function">g_relation_new()</code></a>.</p> |
| <p>To specify which fields should be indexed, use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-index" title="g_relation_index ()"><code class="function">g_relation_index()</code></a>. |
| Note that this must be called before any tuples are added to the |
| <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#GRelation" title="GRelation"><span class="type">GRelation</span></a>.</p> |
| <p>To add records to a <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#GRelation" title="GRelation"><span class="type">GRelation</span></a> use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-insert" title="g_relation_insert ()"><code class="function">g_relation_insert()</code></a>.</p> |
| <p>To determine if a given record appears in a <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#GRelation" title="GRelation"><span class="type">GRelation</span></a>, use |
| <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-exists" title="g_relation_exists ()"><code class="function">g_relation_exists()</code></a>. Note that fields are compared directly, so |
| pointers must point to the exact same position (i.e. different |
| copies of the same string will not match.)</p> |
| <p>To count the number of records which have a particular value in a |
| given field, use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-count" title="g_relation_count ()"><code class="function">g_relation_count()</code></a>.</p> |
| <p>To get all the records which have a particular value in a given |
| field, use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-select" title="g_relation_select ()"><code class="function">g_relation_select()</code></a>. To access fields of the resulting |
| records, use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-tuples-index" title="g_tuples_index ()"><code class="function">g_tuples_index()</code></a>. To free the resulting records use |
| <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-tuples-destroy" title="g_tuples_destroy ()"><code class="function">g_tuples_destroy()</code></a>.</p> |
| <p>To delete all records which have a particular value in a given |
| field, use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-delete" title="g_relation_delete ()"><code class="function">g_relation_delete()</code></a>.</p> |
| <p>To destroy the <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#GRelation" title="GRelation"><span class="type">GRelation</span></a>, use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-destroy" title="g_relation_destroy ()"><code class="function">g_relation_destroy()</code></a>.</p> |
| <p>To help debug <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#GRelation" title="GRelation"><span class="type">GRelation</span></a> objects, use <a class="link" href="glib-Relations-and-Tuples.html#g-relation-print" title="g_relation_print ()"><code class="function">g_relation_print()</code></a>.</p> |
