Okay, for anyone who is interested, the trick to adding and dropping tables (or
executing any odd sql) when using sqlYoga is that you have to tell sqlYoga that
the schema has changed. The easiest way to do that is reset the schema with
dbschema_reset, then reconnect to the database. JUST reconnecting will NOT
reload the schema causing you all kinds of headaches in the future.
dbschema_reset thePriDB
dbconn_disconnect thePriDB
dbconn_Connect thePriDB
I'm not sure you have to disconnect first but what the HEY! Also, any queries
you use with sqlYoga will AUTOMATICALLY reconnect to the database. BUT if you
are using the REV IDE to execute what I will call "foreign" queries, that is
queries not run through sqlYoga, AND your connection has timed out, you will
have problems, SO...
I now use dbconn_connect before executing "foreign" queries.
put "DROP TABLE 'myhostname'.'mytablename'" into theSQL -- foreign query
dbconn_Connect thePriDB -- make sure we are currently connected
put dbconn_get("connection id", theConnection, theDBObject) into theID --
get the current dbid
revExecuteSQL theID, theSQL -- shoot the wild ass (just checking to see if
you are reading the comments)
-- now reload the schema
dbschema_reset thePriDB -- wipes the database object clean
dbconn_disconnect thePriDB -- may not need to do this...
dbconn_Connect thePriDB -- this will reload the schema
dbobject_save thePriDB -- ALWAYS SAVE YOUR OBJECTS!
This will refresh the connection id before you execute the query and all will
proceed famously.
Problem solved.
