This generic is deprecated since no working implementation was ever produced.

Usage

dbSetDataMappings(res, flds, ...)

Arguments

res

An object inheriting from DBIResult.

flds

a field description object as returned by dbColumnInfo.

...

Other arguments passed on to methods.

Details

Sets one or more conversion functions to handle the translation of DBMS data types to R objects. This is only needed for non-primitive data, since all DBI drivers handle the common base types (integers, numeric, strings, etc.)

The details on conversion functions (e.g., arguments, whether they can invoke initializers and/or destructors) have not been specified.
