Hi all,
whatever sql I set to a TOraQuery, propery CanModify is True.

for example if I run the following piece of code:

Query.SQL.Text := 'SELECT ''1'' as pippo from dual';
Query.Open;
Assert(not Query.CanModify);

assertion fails.

In BDE, if I requested this query to be "live", it would rise an exception "table is readonly".

How can I understand that a query is not editable in odac?

Thank you!

Hello,

To forbid data editing, you need to set the ReadOnly property to true. In this case the CanModify property will be set to false automatically.

Hi AlexP,
thank you for your reply!

My problem is that I don't know if the query is editable: it is a custom query, inserted by the user, and system should allow the user to edit it only if it is editable.

Hello,

To check the capability of editing DataSet, you need to set the SetFieldsReadOnly option to true – in this case the CanModify property will be set correctly. But this option usage will decrease performance:

Code: Select all

  OraQuery1.SQL.Text := 'SELECT ''1'' as pippo from dual';
  OraQuery1.Options.SetFieldsReadOnly := true;
  OraQuery1.Open;
  Assert(not OraQuery1.CanModify);
