The following table lists ABL attributes of a temp-table parameter and its buffer (or of a temp-table that is part of a ProDataSet parameter) and how they map to the corresponding ADO.NET DataTable passed in a .NET Open Client.

Table 1. Mapping ABL temp-table and buffer attributes to ADO.NET
ABL temp-table or buffer attribute ADO.NET mapping Description 
BEFORE-TABLE
 
Progress.Open4GL.ProDataTable
.GetBImageFlag
  (System.Data.DataTable dt)
Progress.Open4GL.ProDataTable
.SetBImageFlag
  (System.Data.DataTable dt, 
   bool flag)
 For the ADO.NET DataTable specified by dt, these static methods get or set an indication of whether the DataTable corresponds to an ABL temp-table that has a before-table defined for it on the application server using the BEFORE-TABLE option (or attribute). For more information, see Before-image methods. 
DATA-SOURCE-MODIFED
 
Progress.Open4GL.ProDataTable
.GetDataSourceModified
  (System.Data.DataTable dt)
 For the ADO.NET DataTable specified by dt, this static method returns an indication whether any data source row is modified from the original temp-table values passed from the application server as part of a ProDataSet. For more information, see GetDataSourceModified( ). 
ERROR-STRING
 
Progress.Open4GL.ProDataTable
.GetErrorString
  (System.Data.DataTable dt)
Progress.Open4GL.ProDataTable
.SetErrorString
  (System.Data.DataTable dt, 
   string newValue)
System.Data.DataRow.RowError
 For the ADO.NET DataTable specified by dt, these static methods get or set the value of the corresponding temp-table ERROR-STRING attribute. For more information, see Error handling methods.The RowError property gets or sets the ERROR-STRING attribute on the corresponding temp-table buffer (row value). 
NAME
 
System.Data.DataTable.TableName
 Gets or sets the name of the corresponding temp-table. 
NAMESPACE-PREFIX
 
System.Data.DataTable.Prefix
 Gets or sets the XML namespace prefix on the specified ADO.NET DataTable for the corresponding ABL temp-table. 
NAMESPACE-URI
 
System.Data.DataTable.Namespace
 Gets or sets the XML namespace on the specified ADO.NET DataTable for the corresponding ABL temp-table. 
PRIMARY
 
System.Data.UniqueConstraint
System.Data.DataTable.PrimaryKey
 The DataTable.PrimaryKey maps to the corresponding temp-table's primary index. It contains an array of DataColmun objects that compose the primary key. This same array of columns is contained in the DataTable.Constraints collections as a UniqueConstraint object, where the UniqueConstraint.isPrimary property is true. 
REJECTED
 
Progress.Open4GL.ProDataTable
.GetRejected
  (System.Data.DataTable dt)
 For the ADO.NET DataTable specified by dt, this static method returns an indication of whether any changes from the corresponding temp-table values in the original ProDataSet were rejected on the application server. For more information, see GetRejected( ). 
ROW-STATE
 
System.Data.DataRow.RowState
 Returns the current change state of the corresponding row (buffer) of a temp-table in a ProDataSest parameter. 
UNDO
 
Progress.Open4GL.ProDataTable
.GetUndo
  (System.Data.DataTable dt)
 For the ADO.NET DataTable specified by dt, this static method returns an indication of whether the corresponding temp-table is defined as UNDO on the application server. For more information, see GetUndo( ).
