Detailed Description

A QOF Book is a dataset. It provides a single handle through which all the various collections of entities can be found. In particular, given only the type of the entity, the collection can be found.

Books also provide the 'natural' place to working with a storage backend, as a book can encapsulate everything held in storage.

Encapsulates all the information about a dataset manipulated by QOF. This is the top-most structure used for anchoring data.

This macro looks up an entity by GncGUID and returns a pointer to the entity by ending with a "return" statement. Hence, this macro can only be used as the last statement in the definition of a function, but not somewhere inline in the code.

QofCollection* qof_book_get_collection ( const QofBook ,
QofIdType   
)

Return The table of entities of the given type.

When an object's constructor calls qof_instance_init(), a reference to the object is stored in the book. The book stores all the references to initialized instances, sorted by type. This function returns a collection of the references for the specified type.

If the collection doesn't yet exist for the indicated type, it is created. Thus, this routine is gaurenteed to return a non-NULL value. (Unless the system malloc failed (out of memory) in which case what happens??).

Retrieves arbitrary pointers to structs stored by qof_book_set_data.

KvpFrame* qof_book_get_slots ( const QofBook book)

Return The kvp data for the book. Note that the book KVP data is persistent, and is stored/retrieved from the file/database. Thus, the book KVP is the correct place to store data that needs to be persistent accross sessions (or shared between multiple users). To store application runtime data, use qof_book_set_data() instead.

gchar* qof_book_increment_and_format_counter ( QofBook book,

Close a book to editing.

It is up to the application to check this flag, and once marked closed, books cannnot be marked as open.

void qof_book_mark_session_dirty ( QofBook book)

The qof_book_mark_dirty() routine marks the book as having been modified. It can be used by frontend when the used has made a change at the book level.

Definition at line 180 of file qofbook.c.

{
    if (!book) return;
    if (!book->session_dirty)
    {

    }
}
void qof_book_mark_session_saved ( QofBook book)

The qof_book_mark_saved() routine marks the book as having been saved (to a file, to a database). Used by backends to mark the notsaved flag as FALSE just after loading. Can also be used by the frontend when the used has said to abandon any changes.

Definition at line 166 of file qofbook.c.

    return TRUE;
}
gboolean qof_book_session_not_saved ( const QofBook book)

qof_book_not_saved() returns the value of the session_dirty flag, set when changes to any object in the book are committed (qof_backend->commit_edit has been called) and the backend hasn't yet written out the changes. (Note that SQL backends write commits out immediately; file backends don't, and use the flag to control an autosave timer.)

Definition at line 158 of file qofbook.c.

{
    if (!book) return FALSE;
    return book->session_dirty;

}
void qof_book_set_data ( QofBook book,
const gchar *  key,
gpointer  data 
)

The qof_book_set_data() allows arbitrary pointers to structs to be stored in QofBook. This is the "preferred" method for extending QofBook to hold new data types. This is also the ideal location to store other arbitrary runtime data that the application may need.

The book data differs from the book KVP in that the contents of the book KVP are persistent (are saved and restored to file or database), whereas the data pointers exist only at runtime.

void qof_book_set_data_fin ( QofBook book,
const gchar *  key,
gpointer  data,
QofBookFinalCB   
)

Same as qof_book_set_data(), except that the callback will be called when the book is destroyed. The argument to the callback will be the book followed by the data pointer.

void qof_book_set_dirty_cb ( QofBook book,
QofBookDirtyCB  cb,
gpointer  user_data 
)

Set the function to call when a book transitions from clean to dirty, or vice versa.

Definition at line 200 of file qofbook.c.

{
    if (book->dirty_cb)
        g_warning("qof_book_set_dirty_cb: Already existing callback %p, will be overwritten by %p\n",

    book->dirty_data = user_data;
    book->dirty_cb = cb;
}
gboolean qof_book_shutting_down ( const QofBook book)

Is the book shutting down?

Definition at line 220 of file qofbook.c.

{
    if (!book) return FALSE;
    return book->shutting_down;
}
gboolean qof_book_use_trading_accounts ( const QofBook book)

Returns flag indicating whether this book uses trading accounts

Definition at line 624 of file qofbook.c.

gchar* qof_book_validate_counter_format ( const gchar *  format)

Validate a counter format string. Returns an error message if the format string was invalid, or NULL if it is ok. The caller should free the error message with g_free.
