GetInstalledMasterDbs

Description

(Perl only) For Visual Basic, see GetInstalledMasters.

Returns the list of registered schema repositories (master databases).

The value returned is an array reference. The returned values of GetInstalledDbSets and GetInstalledMasterDbsalways contain the same number of strings. The contents of both are ordered so that each schema repository (master database) listed in GetInstalledMasterDbs belongs to the database set at the same index in GetInstalledDbSets.

Syntax

Perl

$session->GetInstalledMasterDbs(); 

Identifier

Description

session

The Session object that represents the current database-access session.

Return value

Returns a reference to an array of strings for the master database sets.

Examples

Perl

# This program runs in the context of a
# external  program (not from within a hook)...

use CQPerlExt;

# Create the session object...
$Session = CQSession::Build()
or die "Couldn't create the Compass 'session' object.\n";

# Get the list of master databases and dbsets installed on this
# machine; note that both functions return references to
# arrays...

my($MasterDBsREF) = $Session->GetInstalledMasterDbs();
my(@MasterDBs) = @$MasterDBsREF;
my($DbSetsREF) = $Session->GetInstalledDbSets();
my(@DbSets) = @$DbSetsREF;
my($N) = $#MasterDBs;

printf ("There are %d DbSet(s) installed on this machine.\n", ($N+1));

for (my($i)=0; $i <= $N; $i++) {
print "DbSet #" . $i . ": " .
" DbSet=" . $DbSets[$i] .
" MasterDB=" . $MasterDBs[$i] .
"\n";
}

CQSession::Unbuild($Session);
