Detailed Description

Sparksee class.

All Sparksee programs must have one single Sparksee instance to manage one or more Database instances.

This class allows for the creation of new Databases or open an existing one.

Method Documentation

- (BOOL) addChecksums: (NSString *) path

Converts a database WITHOUT checksums into a database WITH checksums.

Any error found is logged. The database (and it's recovery log if present) does NOT have checksums. sparksee::gdb::FileNotFoundExceptionsparksee::gdb::Error

Parameters

path	The path to the database image file

Returns: Returns true if the checksum could be added or false otherwise.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	null

- (STSDatabase*) create:	(NSString *)	path
alias:	(NSString *)	alias

Creates a new Database instance.

Parameters

path	[in] Database storage file.
alias	[in] Database alias name.

Returns: A Database instance.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	If the given file cannot be created.

- (STSDatabase*) createWithConfig:	(NSString *)	path
alias:	(NSString *)	alias
config:	(STSSparkseeConfig *)	config

Creates a new Database instance.

Parameters

path	[in] Database storage file.
alias	[in] Database alias name.
config	[in] Use a specific configuration instead of the one in this Sparksee

Returns: A Database instance.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	If the given file cannot be created.

- (BOOL) decrypt: (NSString *) path

Converts a database WITH encryption into a database WITHOUT encryption.

Any error found is logged. The database (and it's recovery log if present) is encrypted. The current encryption had been configured using SparkseeConfig. sparksee::gdb::FileNotFoundExceptionsparksee::gdb::Error

Parameters

path	The path to the database image file

Returns: Returns true if the database could be unencrypted. The errors are returned with an exception.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	null

- (BOOL) encrypt: (NSString *) path

Converts a database WITHOUT encryption into an encrypted database.

Any error found is logged. The database (and it's recovery log if present) does is NOT encrypted. The encryption had already been configured using SparkseeConfig. sparksee::gdb::FileNotFoundExceptionsparksee::gdb::Error

Parameters

path	The path to the database image file

Returns: Returns true if the database could be encrypted. The errors are returned with an exception.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	null

- (long long) getInMemoryPoolCapacity

Gets the capacity of the in-memory pool (in Megabytes)

Returns: Returns the capacity of the in memory pool

- (id) initWithConfig: (STSSparkseeConfig *) config

Creates a new instance.

Parameters

config [in/out] Sparksee configuration (may be updated).

- (STSDatabase*) open:	(NSString *)	path
readOnly:	(BOOL)	readOnly

Opens an existing Database instance.

Parameters

path	[in] Database storage file.
readOnly	[in] If TRUE, open Database in read-only mode.

Returns: A Database instance.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	If the given file does not exist.

- (STSDatabase*) openWithConfig:	(NSString *)	path
readOnly:	(BOOL)	readOnly
config:	(STSSparkseeConfig *)	config

Opens an existing Database instance.

The provided configuration will be used for all the database settings but not for the license, which must already be properly setup in this class.

Parameters

path	[in] Database storage file.
readOnly	[in] If TRUE, open Database in read-only mode.
config	[in] Use a specific configuration instead of the one in this Sparksee

Returns: A Database instance.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	If the given file does not exist.

- (BOOL) removeChecksums: (NSString *) path

Converts a database WITH checksums into a database WITHOUT checksums.

Any error found is logged. The database (and it's recovery log if present) have checksums. sparksee::gdb::FileNotFoundExceptionsparksee::gdb::Error

Parameters

path	The path to the database image file

Returns: Returns true if the checksum could be removed. The errors are returned with an exception.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	null

- (void) resizeInMemoryPool: (long long) newCapacity

Resizes the in memory pool allocator.

Parameters

newCapacity The new capacity of the in memory pool allocator

Returns: Returns true if was successful

Exceptions

System.SystemException null

- (STSDatabase*) restore:	(NSString *)	path
backupFile:	(NSString *)	backupFile

Restores a Database from a backup file.

See the Graph class Backup method.

Parameters

path	[in] Database storage file.
backupFile	[in] The Backup file to be restored.

Returns: A Database instance.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	If the given file cannot be created, or the exported data file does not exists.

- (STSDatabase*) restoreEncryptedBackup:	(NSString *)	path
backupFile:	(NSString *)	backupFile
keyInHex:	(NSString *)	keyInHex
ivInHex:	(NSString *)	ivInHex

Restores a Database from an encrypted backup file.

See the Graph class EncryptedBackup method.

Parameters

path	[in] Database storage file.
backupFile	[in] The Backup file to be restored.
keyInHex	[In] The AES encryption Key of the backup file as an hexadecimal string (8, 16 or 32 bytes).
ivInHex	[In] The AES Initialization Vector of the backup file as an hexadecimal string (16 bytes).

Returns: A Database instance.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	If the given file cannot be created, or the exported data file does not exists.

- (STSDatabase*) restoreEncryptedBackupWithConfig:	(NSString *)	path
backupFile:	(NSString *)	backupFile
config:	(STSSparkseeConfig *)	config
keyInHex:	(NSString *)	keyInHex
ivInHex:	(NSString *)	ivInHex

Restores a Database from an encrypted backup file.

See the Graph class EncryptedBackup method.

Parameters

path	[in] Database storage file.
backupFile	[in] The Backup file to be restored.
config	[in] Use a specific configuration instead of the one in this Sparksee
keyInHex	[In] The AES encryption Key of the backup file as an hexadecimal string (8, 16 or 32 bytes).
ivInHex	[In] The AES Initialization Vector of the backup file as an hexadecimal string (16 bytes).

Returns: A Database instance.

Exceptions

- (STSDatabase*) restoreWithConfig:	(NSString *)	path
backupFile:	(NSString *)	backupFile
config:	(STSSparkseeConfig *)	config

Restores a Database from a backup file.

See the Graph class Backup method.

Parameters

path	[in] Database storage file.
backupFile	[in] The Backup file to be restored.
config	[in] Use a specific configuration instead of the one in this Sparksee

Returns: A Database instance.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	If the given file cannot be created, or the exported data file does not exists.

- (BOOL) verifyChecksums: (NSString *) path

Verifies the Checksum integrity of the given image file and it's recovery log file.

The main database file checksums are always checked.

When the recovery log file exists, the recovery log file is also checked for checksum and format errors.

When the checksums of the main file or the recovery file are incorrect, the funcion returns false, in any other error it throws an exception.

Any error found is logged as a WARNING.

sparksee::gdb::FileNotFoundExceptionsparksee::gdb::Error

Parameters

path	The path to the image file

Returns: Returns true if the checksum verification succeeded. Returns false if an invalid checksum was detected.

Exceptions

System.ApplicationException	null
System.IO.IOException	null
