gda_type_to_string ()

const gchar* gda_type_to_string             (GdaValueType type);

Return the string representing the given GdaType.

`type` :	Type to convert from.
Returns :	the name of the type.

gda_type_from_string ()

GdaValueType gda_type_from_string           (const gchar *str);

`str` :
Returns :

gda_string_hash_to_list ()

GList*      gda_string_hash_to_list         (GHashTable *hash_table);

`hash_table` :
Returns :

gda_sql_replace_placeholders ()

gchar*      gda_sql_replace_placeholders    (const gchar *sql,
                                             GdaParameterList *params);

Replaces the placeholders (:name) in the given SQL command with the values from the GdaParameterList specified as the params argument.

`sql` :	A SQL command containing placeholders for values.
`params` :	List of values for the placeholders.
Returns :	the SQL string with all placeholders replaced, or NULL on error. On success, the returned string must be freed by the caller when no longer needed.

Loads a file, specified by the given uri, and returns the file contents as a string.

It is the caller's responsibility to free the returned value.

`filename` :	path for the file to be loaded.
Returns :	the file contents as a newly-allocated string, or NULL if there is an error.

gda_file_save ()

gboolean    gda_file_save                   (const gchar *filename,
                                             const gchar *buffer,
                                             gint len);
