<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Yes, such corruption is a possible
problem. Hoewever, if your scheme is based on cached (pre-created) PropertyValue
objects, then it has the same problem – someone can hold on to the
PropertyValue object while it changes from under them. If you want to fix that,
you’d have to do some really ugly refcounting hacks. <o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Besides, there is precedent for
allowing corruptible memory – one of the GetGeometry calls in FdoFeatureReader
is only guaranteed to hold good data until the next ReadNext call, and callers
must be aware of that. This allows providers like SDF and SQLite for example to
return pointers directly to database memory, thus avoiding doing even a single
copy of the data. This is also how the GetString() calls works.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

FdoFeatureReader or a PropertyValueCollection – same API for both.
However, it would not necessarily copy the data from the FeatureReader –
in the case where it wraps a FeatureReader it could simply do a passthrough,

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>The actual implementation is not
the point though, as long as the outfacing API allows for implementing it

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Think of it as a data row
– a feature reader lets you iterate through many such data rows via
ReadNext(). It is also very similar to OGRFeature for example (<a
href="http://www.gdal.org/ogr/classOGRFeature.html">http://www.gdal.org/ogr/classOGRFeature.html</a>).<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>So, for example say you want to
transfer a feature from one connection to another – you would do a select
from one connection, and that will return a FeatureReader. You can wrap that in
the data row object, which has essentially the same API as the feature reader,
except that it does not allow ReadNext(). Then you can pass that wrapper to an
FdoInsert which will take the data row and insert it into the destination
connection.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Internally you could also wrap a
PropertyValue collection in such a data row object – no matter whether it
is backed by a FeatureReader or a PropertyValue collection, it would offer the
same API. Also, you can have the data row convert all its data into a
PropertyValueCollection which you can use in case you don’t need performance,
thus enabling interop with existing code, which uses such PropertyValue
collections.<o:p></o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'><o:p> </o:p></span></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>You can also for example define
this object so that it can do automatic type conversion for you – say you
call GetInt32 on an Int16 property – it can automatically do the cast for
you. Which would provide equivalent functionality to RFC 30 by the way, or it
can use whatever code RFC30 adds to FDO. </span><span style='font-family:Wingdings;

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>Yes, but creating PropertyValues
would be a performance overhead. That’s why I’m suggesting the
alternative approach of allowing commands to pull the feature’s data
directly from a FeatureReader (or equivalent).<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal><span style='color:#1F497D'>An alternative to this
suggestion is to make the destination command accept an FdoIFeatureReader (or
something equivalent that provides access to property values in a procedural
way) as argument, rather than a collection of PropertyValues. I was thinking of
this when I was implementing the SDF->SQLite converter, which requires two
translations from PropertyValue to raw data – once when initializing the
inputs of the insert command and a second time inside the destination provider
when matching the input property values to the destination schema.<o:p></o:p></span></p>

<p class=MsoNormal>Hi,<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>RFC 30 (<a href="http://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/wiki/FDORfc30">http://trac.osgeo.org/fdo/wiki/FDORfc30</a>)
is now ready for review. The main purpose is add FDO API functions to
encapsulate conversions between different FDO data types. Please review and let
me know if you have any questions or comments.<o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>If approved, this one will likely be implemented 2 versions
after FDO 3.3. <o:p></o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal><o:p> </o:p></p>
<p class=MsoNormal>Thanks,<o:p></o:p></p>
