The result of a SQL statement execution is either:
1. An error.
2. The list of rows inserted, deleted, selected, etc.
(2) is currently represented by a combination of the Result class and
the ResultSet list it holds. This worked okay, but issues start to
arise when trying to use Result in non-statement contexts (for example,
when introducing Result to SQL expression execution).
What we really need is for Result to be a thin wrapper that represents
both (1) and (2), and to not have any explicit members like a ResultSet.
So this commit removes ResultSet from Result, and introduces ResultOr,
which is just an alias for AK::ErrorOrr. Statement execution now returns
ResultOr<ResultSet> instead of Result. This further opens the door for
expression execution to return ResultOr<Value> in the future.
Lastly, this moves some other context held by Result over to ResultSet.
This includes the row count (which is really just the size of ResultSet)
and the command for which the result is for.
Derivatives of Core::Object should be constructed through
ClassName::construct(), to avoid handling ref-counted objects with
refcount zero. Fixing the visibility means that misuses like this are
more difficult.
This patch introduces the SQLServer system server. This service is
supposed to be the only process/application talking to database storage.
This makes things like locking and caching more reliable, easier to
implement, and more efficient.
In LibSQL we added a client component that does the ugly IPC nitty-
gritty for you. All that's needed is setting a number of event handler
lambdas and you can connect to databases and execute statements on them.
Applications that wish to use this SQLClient class obviously need to
link LibSQL and LibIPC.
