Return NEWID() from a SQL Query

Lany

Here's the result of

qDebug() << query.exec("DECLARE @myid UNIQUEIDENTIFIER;"
                       "SET @myid = NEWID();"
                       "INSERT INTO TBL_TEST (TEST_ID, TEST_01) VALUES (@myid, '0');"
                       "SELECT @myid;");
qDebug() << query.next();
qDebug() << query.value(0).toString();
qDebug() << query.lastError().text();

Debug output:

true
false
QSqlQuery::value: not positioned on a valid record
""
" "

@Lany
If QSqlQuery::next() is returning false I would see what query.lastError() on the immediately following line returns (I don't know whether that gets set, try it). I would read https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsqlquery.html#next, where restrictions are mentioned, e.g. for all I know/I suspect that for your statement https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsqlquery.html#isSelect is returning false.

I'm unsure if the qt mysql driver can handle multiple queries - I would guess no.

I tried this

qDebug() << query.exec("DECLARE @myid UNIQUEIDENTIFIER;"
                       "SET @myid = NEWID();"
                       "INSERT INTO TBL_TEST (TEST_ID, TEST_01) VALUES (@myid, '0');"
                       "SELECT @myid;");
qDebug() << query.lastError().text();
qDebug() << query.isActive();
qDebug() << query.isSelect();
qDebug() << query.next();
qDebug() << query.value(0).toString();

the result:

true
" "
true
false
false
QSqlQuery::value: not positioned on a valid record
""

The query is not in a SELECT state, as mentioned by Christian, I think this driver can't handle multiple query.
I'm going to look for another solution.

Thanks!

Perhaps you can try to send the SQL statement through QSqlDatabase::exec() ?

Hi,
I think you want to insert a record and get the record serila number from DB.
I guess it depends of what you use as database but in my case I use PostgreSQL and in this situation you have good SQL command like below:

//Yeni kaydet yapılıyor...
    QSqlQuery kayitDb(baglanti::mdb());
    kayitDb.prepare("INSERT INTO teklif(teklif_no, teklif_tarih, teklif_tip, aciklama, cari_kod, teslim_sure, odeme_tip, odeme_vade, teklif_kur, proje_kod) "
                    "VALUES(:teklif_no, :teklif_tarih, :teklif_tip, :aciklama, :cari_kod, :teslim_sure, :odeme_tip, :odeme_vade, :teklif_kur, :proje_kod) RETURNING sira_no;");

    kayitDb.bindValue(":teklif_no", ui->lETeklifNo->text());
    kayitDb.bindValue(":teklif_tarih", ui->dateTeklifTarih->date());
    kayitDb.bindValue(":teklif_tip", ui->lETeklifTip->text() );
    kayitDb.bindValue(":aciklama", ui->plainAciklama->toPlainText());
    kayitDb.bindValue(":cari_kod", ui->lECariKod->text().toInt());
    kayitDb.bindValue(":teslim_sure", ui->lETeslim->text());

    kayitDb.bindValue(":odeme_tip", ui->cBOdeme->currentText() );
    kayitDb.bindValue(":odeme_vade", ui->lEVade->text() );
    kayitDb.bindValue(":teklif_kur", ui->comboKur->currentText() );



     //Sending and returning serial ID...
    if(kayitDb.exec() && kayitDb.first())
    {
        int belgeSiraNo = kayitDb.value(0).toInt();
         ui->lESiraNo->setText(kayitDb.value(0).toString());


            if(detayKaydet(belgeSiraNo))
            {
                //İşlem sonu
                QMessageBox::information(this, "Tamamdır :)", "Fiş: " + ui->lESiraNo->text() + " sıra numarası ile kaydedildi.");
                ekranTemizle();
                iptalKonum();
            }

    } else
    {
        QMessageBox::critical(this, "Hata", "Veritabanına ulaşılamadı!\n"+kayitDb.lastError().text() );
        return;
    }

You're sending INSERT sql and reading returning serila value.

Just use the api, here you go: https://doc.qt.io/qt-5/qsqlquery.html#lastInsertId
There's little sense in trying to emulate something that's not standard and is already implemented in the driver.

Lany

@kshegunov
The ID is generated by the db not by "me"

query.exec("INSERT INTO TBL_TEST (TEST_ID, TEST_01) VALUES (NEWID(), '0');");
qDebug() << query.lastInsertId().toString();

result:

"0"

In the db I have something like this :

315FD979-F300-4493-A0B9-4B5FE64A8F45

Yes, that's why the client library and the driver on top of it knows about it and can give it back to you. It's not necessary to do a query to emulate the behavior.

PS. You need to handle the variant you got properly, not just blindly convert it to a string.

qDebug() << query.lastInsertId().type();

should help. Also, please make sure that TEST_ID is a primary key in the database (i.e. is properly indexed).

Lany

@kshegunov
The returned type is :

QVariant::double

TEST_ID is a primary key (PK, uniqueidentifier, not null)
If I try this

qDebug() << query.lastInsertId().toDouble();

The returned value is :

What database engine is this? MySQL, PgSQL, MSSQL?

Lany

Microsoft SQL server 2014

Right, sorry I was misled about the talk about MySql. Anyways, you really should auto-generate the id, not insert it manually (probably not the problem here, just saying). I haven't worked with MS for ages. Check if the driver supports lastInstertId at all.

qDebug() << db.driver()->hasFeature(QSqlDriver::LastInsertId);

If it doesn't then you're stuck to using non-standard queries. That means once you run the insert, you run a second query to fetch the inserted id.
