Difference between RWDBTBuffer<T>, RWDBVector<T> and RWDBDecimalVector

Question

I'm writing a python script to generate C++ classes used for database access and they use RogueWave types for data transfer. I have a few template classes I'm looking at to outline how the generated classes should look. When implementing a method for transferring several tuples in one operation, columns are wrapped in RWDBTbuffer, RWDBVector and RWDBDecimalVector.

My problem is, I can't see a direct correlation between the data type that is being wrapped (int, long, RWDateTime, RWDecimalPortable) and the container it is being placed in. It seems to me that I can just put everything in a RWDBTBuffer. What is the advantage of using RWDBDecimalVector over RWDBTBuffer for numeric types, and should RWDBVector ever be used?

Answer 1

in terms of data that they both store there isn't any different.
the main different is that you can shift RWDBVector into RWDBReader and then you can read the data into it.
