+
+
+The QSqlQuery class provides a means of executing and
+manipulating SQL statements.
+<p>
+
+
+<p> QSqlQuery encapsulates the functionality involved in creating,
+navigating and retrieving data from SQL queries which are executed
+on a <a href="qsqldatabase.html">QSqlDatabase</a>. It can be used to execute DML (data
+manipulation language) statements, e.g. <tt>SELECT</tt>, <tt>INSERT</tt>, <tt>UPDATE</tt> and <tt>DELETE</tt>, and also DDL (data definition language)
+statements, e.g. <tt>CREATE TABLE</tt>. It can also be used to
+execute database-specific commands which are not standard SQL
+(e.g. <tt>SET DATESTYLE=ISO</tt> for PostgreSQL).
+<p> Successfully executed SQL statements set the query's state to
+active (<a href="#isActive">isActive</a>() returns TRUE); otherwise the query's state is
+set to inactive. In either case, when executing a new SQL
+statement, the query is positioned on an invalid record; an active
+query must be navigated to a valid record (so that <a href="#isValid">isValid</a>()
+returns TRUE) before values can be retrieved.
+<p> Navigating records is performed with the following functions:
+<p> <ul>
+<li> <a href="#next">next</a>()
+<li> <a href="#prev">prev</a>()
+<li> <a href="#first">first</a>()
+<li> <a href="#last">last</a>()
+<li> <tt></tt><a href="#seek">seek</a>(int)
+</ul>
+<p> These functions allow the programmer to move forward, backward or
+arbitrarily through the records returned by the query. If you only
+need to move forward through the results, e.g. using <a href="#next">next</a>() or
+using <a href="#seek">seek</a>() with a positive offset, you can use <a href="#setForwardOnly">setForwardOnly</a>()
+and save a significant amount of memory overhead. Once an active
+query is positioned on a valid record, data can be retrieved using
+<a href="#value">value</a>(). All data is transferred from the SQL backend using
+QVariants.
+<p> For example:
+<p> <pre>
+ QSqlQuery query( "SELECT name FROM customer" );
+ while ( query.<a href="#next">next</a>() ) {
+ <a href="qstring.html">QString</a> name = query.<a href="#value">value</a>(0).toString();
+ doSomething( name );
+ }
+ </pre>
+
+<p> To access the data returned by a query, use the value() method.
+Each field in the data returned by a SELECT statement is accessed
+by passing the field's position in the statement, starting from 0.
+Information about the fields can be obtained via <a href="qsqldatabase.html#record">QSqlDatabase::record</a>().
+For the sake of efficiency there are no functions to access a field
+by name. (The <a href="qsqlcursor.html">QSqlCursor</a> class provides a higher-level interface
+with field access by name and automatic SQL generation.)
+<p> QSqlQuery supports prepared query execution and the binding of
+parameter values to placeholders. Some databases don't support
+these features, so for them Qt emulates the required
+functionality. For example, the Oracle and ODBC drivers have
+proper prepared query support, and Qt makes use of it; but for
+databases that don't have this support, Qt implements the feature
+itself, e.g. by replacing placeholders with actual values when a
+query is executed. The exception is positional binding using named
+placeholders, which requires that the database supports prepared
+queries.
+<p> Oracle databases identify placeholders by using a colon-name
+syntax, e.g <tt>:name</tt>. ODBC simply uses <tt>?</tt> characters. Qt
+supports both syntaxes (although you can't mix them in the same
+query).
+<p> Below we present the same example using each of the four different
+binding approaches.
+<p> <b>Named binding using named placeholders</b>
+<pre>
+ QSqlQuery query;
+ query.<a href="#prepare">prepare</a>( "INSERT INTO atable (id, forename, surname) "
+ "VALUES (:id, :forename, :surname)" );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( ":id", 1001 );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( ":forename", "Bart" );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( ":surname", "Simpson" );
+ query.<a href="#exec">exec</a>();
+ </pre>
+
+<p> <b>Positional binding using named placeholders</b>
+<pre>
+ QSqlQuery query;
+ query.<a href="#prepare">prepare</a>( "INSERT INTO atable (id, forename, surname) "
+ "VALUES (:id, :forename, :surname)" );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( 0, 1001 );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( 1, "Bart" );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( 2, "Simpson" );
+ query.<a href="#exec">exec</a>();
+ </pre>
+
+<b>Note:</b> Using positional binding with named placeholders will
+only work if the database supports prepared queries. This can be
+checked with <a href="qsqldriver.html#hasFeature">QSqlDriver::hasFeature</a>() using QSqlDriver::PreparedQueries
+as argument for driver feature.
+<p> <b>Binding values using positional placeholders #1</b>
+<pre>
+ QSqlQuery query;
+ query.<a href="#prepare">prepare</a>( "INSERT INTO atable (id, forename, surname) "
+ "VALUES (?, ?, ?)" );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( 0, 1001 );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( 1, "Bart" );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( 2, "Simpson" );
+ query.<a href="#exec">exec</a>();
+ </pre>
+
+<p> <b>Binding values using positional placeholders #2</b>
+<pre>
+ query.prepare( "INSERT INTO atable (id, forename, surname) "
+ "VALUES (?, ?, ?)" );
+ query.addBindValue( 1001 );
+ query.addBindValue( "Bart" );
+ query.addBindValue( "Simpson" );
+ query.exec();
+ </pre>
+
+<p> <b>Binding values to a stored procedure</b>
+This code calls a stored procedure called <tt>AsciiToInt()</tt>, passing
+it a character through its in parameter, and taking its result in
+the out parameter.
+<pre>
+ QSqlQuery query;
+ query.<a href="#prepare">prepare</a>( "call AsciiToInt(?, ?)" );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( 0, "A" );
+ query.<a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>( 1, 0, QSql::Out );
+ query.<a href="#exec">exec</a>();
+ int i = query.<a href="#boundValue">boundValue</a>( 1 ).toInt(); // i is 65.
+ </pre>

+Executes the SQL in <em>query</em>. Returns TRUE and sets the query

+</h3>
+This is an overloaded member function, provided for convenience. It behaves essentially like the above function.
+<p> Executes a previously prepared SQL query. Returns TRUE if the
+query executed successfully; otherwise returns FALSE.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#prepare">prepare</a>(), <a href="#bindValue">bindValue</a>(), and <a href="#addBindValue">addBindValue</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn><a href="qstring.html">QString</a> <a name="executedQuery"></a>QSqlQuery::executedQuery () const
+</h3>
+Returns the last query that was executed.
+<p> In most cases this function returns the same as <a href="#lastQuery">lastQuery</a>(). If a
+prepared query with placeholders is executed on a DBMS that does
+not support it, the preparation of this query is emulated. The
+placeholders in the original query are replaced with their bound
+values to form a new query. This function returns the modified
+query. Useful for debugging purposes.
+<p> <p>See also <a href="#lastQuery">lastQuery</a>().
+
+<h3 class=fn>bool <a name="first"></a>QSqlQuery::first ()<tt> [virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+Retrieves the first record in the result, if available, and
+positions the query on the retrieved record. Note that the result
+must be in an active state and <a href="#isSelect">isSelect</a>() must return TRUE before
+calling this function or it will do nothing and return FALSE.
+Returns TRUE if successful. If unsuccessful the query position is
+set to an invalid position and FALSE is returned.

+<h3 class=fn>void <a name="setForwardOnly"></a>QSqlQuery::setForwardOnly ( bool&nbsp;forward )

+Sets forward only mode to <em>forward</em>. If forward is TRUE only

+</h3>
+Returns the size of the result, (number of rows returned), or -1

+support reporting information about query sizes. Note that for
+non-<tt>SELECT</tt> statements (<a href="#isSelect">isSelect</a>() returns FALSE), <a href="#size">size</a>() will
+return -1. If the query is not active (<a href="#isActive">isActive</a>() returns FALSE),

+<h3 class=fn><a href="qvariant.html">QVariant</a> <a name="value"></a>QSqlQuery::value ( int&nbsp;i ) const<tt> [virtual]</tt>
+</h3>
+Returns the value of the <em>i</em>-th field in the query (zero based).

+is not recommended because the order of the fields in the query is
