new(host, port, socket, user, password, retrytime, tries) click to toggle source

Initiates a connection to “host” on “port” or to the unix “socket” on the local machine and auths with “user” and “password”. Failed connections will be retried for “tries” times, waiting “retrytime” seconds between each try. If “tries” is 0 then retries will continue forever. If “retrytime” is 0 then retries will be attempted on a default interval.

If “server” is a comma-separated list of hosts, then an attempt will be made to connect to each until the attempt succeeds, or there are no more hosts left to try.

If the “socket” parameter is nether nil nor “” then an attempt will be made to connect through it before attempting to connect to “host” on “port”. If it is nil or “” then no attempt will be made to connect through the socket.

begin() click to toggle source

Begins a transaction. Returns true if the begin succeeded, false if it failed. If the database automatically begins a new transaction when a commit or rollback is issued then this doesn’t do anything unless SQL Relay is faking transaction blocks.

        CON(sqlrcon,debugOff);
        return Qnil;
}

        CON(sqlrcon,disableEncryption);
        return Qnil;
}
enableKerberos(p1, p2, p3) click to toggle source

Enables Kerberos authentication and encryption.

“service” indicates the Kerberos service name of the SQL Relay server. If left empty or NULL then the service name “sqlrelay” will be used. “sqlrelay” is the default service name of the SQL Relay server. Note that on Windows platforms the service name must be fully qualified, including the host and realm name. For example: “sqlrelay/sqlrserver.firstworks.com@AD.FIRSTWORKS.COM”.

“mech” indicates the specific Kerberos mechanism to use. On Linux/Unix platforms, this should be a string representation of the mechnaism’s OID, such as:

{ 1 2 840 113554 1 2 2 }

On Windows platforms, this should be a string like:

Kerberos

If left empty or NULL then the default mechanism will be used. Only set this if you know that you have a good reason to.

“flags” indicates what Kerberos flags to use. Multiple flags may be specified, separated by commas. If left empty or NULL then a defalt set of flags will be used. Only set this if you know that you have a good reason to.

Valid flags include:

* GSS_C_MUTUAL_FLAG
* GSS_C_REPLAY_FLAG
* GSS_C_SEQUENCE_FLAG
* GSS_C_CONF_FLAG
* GSS_C_INTEG_FLAG

For a full list of flags, consult the GSSAPI documentation, though note that only the flags listed above are supported on Windows.

static VALUE sqlrcon_enableKerberos(VALUE self,
                                VALUE service, VALUE mech, VALUE flags) {
        sqlrconnection *sqlrcon;
        Data_Get_Struct(self,sqlrconnection,sqlrcon);
        CON3(sqlrcon,enableKerberos,service,mech,flags);
        return Qnil;
}
enableTls(p1, p2, p3, p4, p5, p6, p7) click to toggle source

Enables TLS/SSL encryption, and optionally authentication.

“version” specifies the TLS/SSL protocol version that the client will attempt to use. Valid values include SSL2, SSL3, TLS1, TLS1.1, TLS1.2 or any more recent version of TLS, as supported by and enabled in the underlying TLS/SSL library. If left blank or empty then the highest supported version will be negotiated.

“cert” is the file name of the certificate chain file to send to the SQL Relay server. This is only necessary if the SQL Relay server is configured to authenticate and authorize clients by certificate.

If “cert” contains a password-protected private key, then “password” may be supplied to access it. If the private key is not password-protected, then this argument is ignored, and may be left empty or NULL.

“ciphers” is a list of ciphers to allow. Ciphers may be separated by spaces, commas, or colons. If “ciphers” is empty or NULL then a default set is used. Only set this if you know that you have a good reason to.

For a list of valid ciphers on Linux/Unix platforms, see:

man ciphers

For a list of valid ciphers on Windows platforms, see:

https://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/windows/desktop/aa375549%28v=vs.85%29.aspx

On Windows platforms, the ciphers (alg_id’s) should omit CALG_ and may be given with underscores or dashes. For example: 3DES_112

“validate” indicates whether to validate the SQL Relay’s server certificate, and may be set to one of the following:

"no" - Don't validate the server's certificate.
"ca" - Validate that the server's certificate was
       signed by a trusted certificate authority.
"ca+host" - Perform "ca" validation and also validate
       that one of the subject altenate names (or the
       common name if no SANs are present) in the
       certificate matches the host parameter.
       (Falls back to "ca" validation when a unix
       socket is used.)
"ca+domain" - Perform "ca" validation and also validate
       that the domain name of one of the subject
       alternate names (or the common name if no SANs
       are present) in the certificate matches the
       domain name of the host parameter.  (Falls back
       to "ca" validation when a unix socket is used.)

“ca” is the location of a certificate authority file to use, in addition to the system’s root certificates, when validating the SQL Relay server’s certificate. This is useful if the SQL Relay server’s certificate is self-signed.

On Windows, “ca” must be a file name.

On non-Windows systems, “ca” can be either a file or directory name. If it is a directory name, then all certificate authority files found in that directory will be used. If it a file name, then only that file will be used.

Note that the supported “cert” and “ca” file formats may vary between platforms. A variety of file formats are generally supported on Linux/Unix platfoms (.pem, .pfx, etc.) but only the .pfx format is currently supported on Windows.

        CON1(sqlrcon,setClientInfo,clientinfo);
        return Qnil;
}
setConnectTimeout(timeoutsec,timeoutusec) click to toggle source

Sets the server connect timeout in seconds and milliseconds. Setting either parameter to -1 disables the timeout. You can also set this timeout using the SQLR_CLIENT_CONNECT_TIMEOUT environment variable.

static VALUE sqlrcon_setConnectTimeout(VALUE self,
                                VALUE timeoutsec, VALUE timeoutusec) {
        sqlrconnection *sqlrcon;
        Data_Get_Struct(self,sqlrconnection,sqlrcon);
        CON2(sqlrcon,setConnectTimeout,timeoutsec,timeoutusec)
        return Qnil;
}
setDebugFile(filename) click to toggle source

Allows you to specify a file to write debug to. Setting “filename” to NULL or an empty string causes debug to be written to standard output (the default).

static VALUE sqlrcon_setDebugFile(VALUE self, VALUE filename) {
        sqlrconnection *sqlrcon;
        Data_Get_Struct(self,sqlrconnection,sqlrcon);
        CON1(sqlrcon,setDebugFile,filename);
        return Qnil;
}
setResponseTimeout(timeoutsec,timeoutusec) click to toggle source

Sets the response timeout (for queries, commits, rollbacks, pings, etc.) in seconds and milliseconds. Setting either parameter to -1 disables the timeout. You can also set this timeout using the SQLR_CLIENT_RESPONSE_TIMEOUT environment variable.

static VALUE sqlrcon_setResponseTimeout(VALUE self,
                                VALUE timeoutsec, VALUE timeoutusec) {
        sqlrconnection *sqlrcon;
        Data_Get_Struct(self,sqlrconnection,sqlrcon);
        CON2(sqlrcon,setResponseTimeout,timeoutsec,timeoutusec)
        return Qnil;
}
suspendSession() click to toggle source

Disconnects this connection from the current session but leaves the session open so that another connection can connect to it using sqlrcon_resumeSession().

static VALUE sqlrcon_suspendSession(VALUE self) {
        sqlrconnection *sqlrcon;
        bool           result;
        Data_Get_Struct(self,sqlrconnection,sqlrcon);
        RCON(result,br,sqlrcon,suspendSession);
        return INT2NUM(result);
