columnprivileges

Get database column privileges

Syntax

lp = columnprivileges(dbmeta, 'cata', 'sch', 'tab')
lp = columnprivileges(dbmeta, 'cata', 'sch', 'tab', 'l')

Description

lp = columnprivileges(dbmeta, 'cata', 'sch', 'tab') returns the list of privileges for all columns in table tab, in the schema sch, of the catalog cata, for the database whose database metadata object is dbmeta, where dbmeta was created using dmd.

lp = columnprivileges(dbmeta, 'cata', 'sch', 'tab', 'l') returns the list of privileges for column l, in the table tab, in the schema sch, of the catalog cata, for the database whose database metadata object is dbmeta, where dbmeta was created using dmd.

Examples

Type

lp = columnprivileges(dbmeta,'msdb','geck','builds','build_id')

MATLAB returns

lp =
     'builds'    'build_id'    {1x4 cell}

In this example:

• dbmeta is the database metadata object
• msdb is the catalog cata
• geck is the schema sch
• builds is the table tab
• build_id is the column name.

The results show:

• the table name, builds, in column 1
• the column name, build_id, in column 2
• the column privileges, lp, in column 3

To view the contents of the 3rd column in lp, type

lp{1,3}

MATLAB returns the column privileges for the build_id column.

ans =
     'INSERT'    'REFERENCES'    'SELECT'    'UPDATE'
