SQLiteScalarFunction<TResult> Class

In This Topic

Base class for user-defined scalar functions with no parameters.

Syntax

Visual Basic
C#

'Declaration
 
Public MustInherit Class SQLiteScalarFunction(Of TResult) 
   Inherits SQLiteScalarFunction
   Implements System.IDisposable

public abstract class SQLiteScalarFunction<TResult> : SQLiteScalarFunction, System.IDisposable

Type Parameters

TResult: Type of the user-defined function result.

Remarks

Use this generic class to derive classes for user-defined scalar functions without parameters from it. This generic class was introduced to ease the user-defined function creating. It allows to specify parameter count, type, and function result type. As an alternative, you may use SQLiteScalarFunction to create user-defined aggregate functions with any number of parameters.

The scalar function is a simple function, that returns a scalar value and is executed once when called.

To register the user-defined scalar funtion, create the class, derived from SQLiteScalarFunction and pass its name and number of arguments to the base class constructor.

You should also override the Execute(SQLiteConnection) method, which should implement the function actions.
