Iterate over results in neo4j_client for C++ - c++

Question

I am looking for examples on usage for neo4j_client in C++. In the test suite I see the neo4j_result_t, but no example of iterating or calling fields by name. Is that possible?

Answer 1

Results are returned as a neo4j_result_stream_t, which represents a stream of result rows. The number of the columns in the result is available via neo4j_nfields, and their names via neo4j_fieldname, both of which take the neo4j_result_stream_t pointer as a parameter.
To iterate over the result rows, use neo4j_fetch_next which returns a neo4j_result_t. And to extract values for each column from the row (the fields), pass the pointer to neo4j_result_field (along with the index of the column).
An example would be something like this:
neo4j_result_stream_t *results =
neo4j_run(session, "MATCH (n) RETURN n.name, n.age", neo4j_null);
if (results == NULL)
{
neo4j_perror(stderr, errno, "Failed to run statement");
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
int ncolumns = neo4j_nfields(results);
if (ncolumns < 0)
{
neo4j_perror(stderr, errno, "Failed to retrieve results");
return EXIT_FAILURE;
}
neo4j_result_t *result;
while ((result = neo4j_fetch_next(results)) != NULL)
{
unsigned int i;
for (i = 0; i < ncolumns; ++i)
{
if (i > 0)
{
printf(", ");
}
neo4j_value_t value = neo4j_result_field(result, i);
neo4j_fprint(value, stdout);
}
printf("\n");
}
