摘要： A database system and method allows a user to write program code in a high-level programming language that implements a class that defines the structure of a user-defined type and methods that can be invoked on instances of the type. The class is then registered with the database system, which enforces a specific contract for user-defined types against the class. The contract comprises the following requirements. First, the class must specify one of a plurality of different formats for persisting instances of the user-defined type in a database store. Second, the class must be capable of returning a null value for the user-defined type. Third, the class must provide a method for converting the user-defined type to another type. Once these requirements are satisfied, the database system enables instances of the user-defined type to be created. A user-defined type can be used in all contexts where any other built-in type can be used. This includes defining columns of tables, declaring variables and parameters to functions and stored procedures, and evaluating expressions of the user-defined type in SQL queries and updates. Preferably, the database system stores metadata about the user-defined type for subsequent use in creating instances of the type.

摘要： A database system and method allows a user to write program code in a high-level programming language that implements a class that defines the structure of a user-defined aggregate and methods that can be invoked on instances of the user-defined aggregate. The class is then registered with the database system, which enforces a specific contract for user-defined aggregates against the class. The contract comprises the following requirements. First, the class must specify one of a plurality of different formats for persisting instances of the user-defined aggregate in a database store. Second, the class must comprise a first method that can be invoked to initialize the computation of an instance of the user-defined aggregate, a second method that can be invoked to accumulate a plurality of values to be aggregated with the user-defined aggregate, a third method that can be invoked to merge an instance of the user-defined aggregate with another partial aggregation, and a fourth method that can be invoked to compute a final result of an instance of the user-defined aggregate. Once these requirements are satisfied, the database system enables instances of the user-defined aggregate to be created. Preferably, the database system stores metadata about the user-defined aggregate for subsequent use in creating instances of the aggregate.

摘要： Several embodiments of the present invention are directed to systems and methods for extending the UDT framework of an extended relational data store (ERDS) to include support for unordered collections (multisets) and ordered collection (lists). More specifically, several embodiments of the present invention use an UDT infrastructure, CLR generics, and a new UNNEST operator to create and utilize a special type abstraction for collections that is simultaneously a scalar and a relation. As a scalar, this collection type can be processed by all parts of the data store engine that understand scalars (including but not limited to the client stack) and, as a relation, this collection type is queriable like any other type of relation.

摘要： The present invention the is directed to systems and methods for hosting the CLR in a DBMS in order to achieve reliability, scalability, security, and robustness for enabled DBMS programming features. Integrating the CLR with a DBMS enables programming features in the database such as stored procedures, functions, triggers, types, and aggregates to be written in any of the programming languages that are compiled into IL code supported by the CLR. For the various embodiments of the present invention, the CLR is hosted inside the DBMS and, instead of making requests directly to the server operating system, the CLR instead interfaces with the DBMS via DBMS APIs for such requests, and only the DBMS directly interfaces with the server operating system to access the server.
