Question

I’m doing an insert:

QSqlQuery myQuery(db);
myQuery.prepare("INSERT INTO mytable VALUES (:val1, :val2)");
myQuery.bindValue(":val1", 1);
myQuery.bindValue(":val2", 2);
myQuery.exec();

Then I need to get the executed SQL query for logging purposes.

myQuery.executedQuery() returns "INSERT INTO mytable VALUES (?, ?)".

How do I to get executed query with the actual binded values that were used?

Answer 1

An alternative to what lightstep suggested, is to prepare query strings and then call a function that first writes the query to the log and only then calls real execute(). I personally use QString::arg() and “%number” for arguments to make a query string instead of bindValue().

Let’s sum things up:

Solution #1 (lightstep)

I came up with this workaround:

QString getLastExecutedQuery(const QSqlQuery& query)
{
 QString str = query.lastQuery();
 QMapIterator<QString, QVariant> it(query.boundValues());
 while (it.hasNext())
 {
  it.next();
  str.replace(it.key(),it.value().toString());
 }
 return str;
}

Solution #2 (me):

// my helper function

#define SQLDB_SHOW_QUERIES
#define SQLDB_LOG_QUERIES
#define SQLDB_LOG_FILENAME "sqlite.db.log"

bool executeQuery(QSqlQuery& queryObject, const QString& query)
{
 bool result = true;;
#ifdef SQLDB_SHOW_QUERIES
 std::cout<<query.toStdString()<<std::endl;
#endif
#ifdef SQLDB_LOG_QUERIES
 std::fstream fs_log;
 fs_log.open(SQLDB_LOG_FILENAME,std::ios::out|std::ios::app);
 if (fs_log.is_open())
 {
  fs_log<<query.toUtf8().data()<<std::endl;
 }
#endif
 result &= queryObject.exec(query);
#ifdef SQLDB_SHOW_QUERIES
 if (!result) std::cout<<queryObject.lastError().text().toStdString()<<std::endl;
 std::cout<<std::endl;
#endif
#ifdef SQLDB_LOG_QUERIES
 if (fs_log.is_open())
 {
  if (!result) fs_log<<queryObject.lastError().text().toUtf8().data()<<std::endl;
  fs_log<<std::endl;
  fs_log.close();
 }
#endif
 return result;
}

// your sample code

QSqlQuery myQuery(db);
QString query = QString("INSERT INTO mytable VALUES (%1,%2)")
 .arg(1).arg(2);
executeQuery(myQuery,query);
