Extending HCL OneDB™Beyond standard relational database objects, HCL OneDB™ can be extended to handle specialized data types, access methods, routines, and other objects. HCL OneDB™ includes many built-in extensions that are fully integrated in the database server. HCL OneDB™ also provides DataBlade® modules, which are packages of extended database objects for a particular purpose and that are installed separately from the database server. Alternatively, you can create your own user-defined objects for HCL OneDB™.
Creating extensionsYou can create user-defined data types, routines, access methods, and other database objects to suit your needs. You can use application programming interfaces to write user-defined routines and applications that access data in HCL OneDB™ databases.
DataBlade® API Function ReferenceThe HCL OneDB™ DataBlade® API Function Reference describes the DataBlade® API functions and the subset of functions that the DataBlade® API supports.
Function descriptionsThis section gives comprehensive reference information about the functions that are valid within DataBlade® API modules. It lists the function descriptions in alphabetical order, with syntax, usage information, and return values for the functions.
The mi_lo_to_string() functionThe mi_lo_to_string() function converts an LO handle in binary representation to its text representation.

The mi_lo_to_string() function

The mi_lo_to_string() function converts an LO handle in binary representation to its text representation.

Syntax

char *mi_lo_to_string(LO_hdl)
   MI_LO_HANDLE *LO_hdl;

LO_hdl

A pointer to the LO handle to convert to text representation.


Valid in client LIBMI application?	Valid in user-defined routine?
Yes	Yes

Usage

The mi_lo_to_string() function converts the LO handle that LO_hdl references to its text representation. The mi_lo_to_string() function allocates a character string with the current memory duration. Use the mi_free() function to free this character string when it is no longer needed.

Return values

A char pointer: A pointer to the text representation of the LO handle that LO_hdl references.
NULL: The function was not successful.
