DataHandler.getValueFromSql

gobject.value.Value getValueFromSql(string sql, gobject.types.GType type)

Creates a new GValue which represents the SQL value given as argument. This is the opposite of the function [gda.data_handler.DataHandler.getSqlFromValue]. The type argument is used to determine the real data type requested for the returned value.

If the sql string is null, then the returned GValue is of type GDA_TYPE_NULL; if the sql string does not correspond to a valid SQL string for the requested type, then the null is returned.

Parameters

`sql`	an SQL string, or null
`type`	a GType

Returns

the new #GValue or null on error
