dbtsnewval

Returns the new value of the timestamp column after a browse-mode update.

Syntax

LPCDBBINARY dbtsnewval ( PDBPROCESS dbproc );

Argument

dbproc

Is the DBPROCESS structure that is the handle for a particular workstation/ Microsoft® SQL Server™ process. It contains all the information that DB-Library uses to manage communications and data between the workstation and SQL Server.

Returns

A pointer to the new timestamp value for the updated row. If no timestamp was returned to the application (possibly because the update was unsuccessful), the pointer is NULL.

Important Do not modify the identifier in any way. Modifying the identifier can cause unpredictable results.

Remarks

dbtsnewval is one of the DB-Library browse-mode functions.

dbtsnewval provides information about the timestamp column. This function allows the application to save the new timestamp value, possibly for use with dbtsput.
