IIapi_getQueryInfo() Function--Return Information about a Query
The IIapi_getQueryInfo() function returns data associated with a query statement. It is useful for applications that are updating the database to know if the update was successful. The information includes the following:
Number of rows affected by a query
Read-only status of a cursor
Return status of a database procedure execution
ID created when a procedure is executed
ID created when a repeat query is defined
Table key result of an SQL insert or update query
Object key result of an SQL insert or update query
Cursor attributes
Row position and status
As a common practice, applications should call IIapi_getQueryInfo() after each query is completed to check if there are any additional errors or response data reported by the server.
The output of IIapi_getQueryInfo() is valid until the query statement is ended with the IIapi_close() function.
For query statement batches, IIapi_getQueryInfo() should be called once for each query statement in the batch. The query results for each statement in the batch will be returned in the order the query statements were submitted to the batch. IIapi_getQueryInfo() will return a status of IIAPI_ST_NO_DATA if it is called more times than the number of query statements in the batch.
If an error occurs during batch execution that terminates the execution, fewer query results will be returned. In this case, IIapi_getQueryInfo() will return a status of IIAPI_ST_NO_DATA once all the available query results have been returned.
This function has the following syntax:
II_VOID IIapi_getQueryInfo (IIAPI_GETQINFOPARM *getQInfoParm);
typedef struct _IIAPI_GETQINFOPARM
{
      IIAPI_GENPARM  gq_genParm;
      II_PTR         gq_stmtHandle;
      II_ULONG       gq_flags;
      II_ULONG       gq_mask;
      II_LONG        gq_rowCount;
      II_BOOL        gq_readonly
      II_LONG        gq_procedureReturn;
      II_PTR         gq_procedureHandle;
      II_PTR         gq_repeatQueryHandle;
      II_CHAR        gq_tableKey [TBL_KEY_SZ];
      II_CHAR        gq_objectKey [OBJ_KEY_SZ];
      II_ULONG       gq_cursorType
      II_ULONG       gq_rowStatus
      II_LONG        gq_rowPosition
      II_LONG        gq_rowCountEx
} IIAPI_GETQINFOPARM;
This function has the following parameters:

gq_mask
Type: delayed output
Specifies the mask indicating the available response data. This parameter is 0 or a mask of the following values:

IIAPI_GQ_ROW_STATUS
IIAPI_GQ_ROW_COUNT_EX
This parameter is 0 if no response data is available.
gq_rowCount
Type: delayed output
Specifies the number of rows affected by the query. This parameter is valid only if the IIAPI_GQ_ROW_COUNT mask is set in gq_mask; otherwise, this parameter should be ignored.
gq_readonly
Type: delayed output
Indicates the type of cursor opened. Set to TRUE if the statement handle represents a cursor opened for READONLY; otherwise, FALSE. This information is available after IIapi_getDescriptor() or IIapi_getColumns() completes successfully.
This parameter is valid only if the IIAPI_GQ_CURSOR mask is set in gq_mask; otherwise, this parameter should be ignored.
gq_procedureReturn

gq_procedureHandle
Type: delayed output
Specifies the procedure handle for a database procedure. This handle can be used for subsequent executions of the procedure. It is used as a parameter of a query when the query type is IIAPI_QT_EXEC_PROCEDURE.
This parameter is valid only if the IIAPI_GQ_PROCEDURE_ID mask is set in gq_mask; otherwise, this parameter should be ignored.
gq_repeatQueryHande

gq_objectKey
Type: delayed output
Specifies the object key value. This parameter is valid only if the IIAPI_GQ_OBJECT_KEY mask is set in gq_mask; otherwise, this parameter should be ignored.
gq_cursorType
Type: delayed output
Specifies the cursor attributes. This parameter is a mask of the following values:
IIAPI_CURSOR_UPDATE

This information is available after IIapi_getDescriptor() completes successfully. 
This parameter is valid only if the IIAPI_GQ_CURSOR mask is set in gq_mask; otherwise, this parameter should be ignored.
gq_rowStatus
Type: delayed output
Specifies the cursor row status. This parameter is a mask of the following values:
IIAPI_ROW_BEFORE
IIAPI_ROW_FIRST
IIAPI_ROW_LAST
