A field also contains the value of the database column, which can be viewed or changed. Field data values are stored as TQVariants. Using an incompatible type is not permitted. For example: \code TQSqlField f( "myfield", TQVariant::Int ); f.setValue( TQPixmap() ); // will not work \endcode However, the field will attempt to cast certain data types to the field data type where possible: \code TQSqlField f( "myfield", TQVariant::Int ); f.setValue( TQString("123") ); // casts TQString to int \endcode TQSqlField objects are rarely created explicitly in application code. They are usually accessed indirectly through \l TQSqlRecord or \l TQSqlCursor which already contain a list of fields. For example: \code TQSqlCursor cur( "Employee" ); // create cursor using the 'Employee' table TQSqlField* f = cur.field( "name" ); // use the 'name' field f->setValue( "Dave" ); // set field value ... \endcode In practice we rarely need to extract a pointer to a field at all. The previous example would normally be written: \code TQSqlCursor cur( "Employee" ); cur.setValue( "name", "Dave" ); ... \endcode */ /*!
