BUGGER - Bug Report 49 Details

Bug Status:	Closed - Resolved
Bug ID:	49
Project:	Claims_DB
Date Logged:	30/10/2009
Logged By:	Hidden
Details	Feature Request: Ability for Claims_DB to simply return the checksum of a queries result. This will enable third party apps to cache data. Would be especially useful when generating HTML Reports for large datasets, third party app could save a copy of the last generated report and if Claims_DB returns the same checksum as previously provided use that instead
Developer:	B Tasker
Developer Notes:	Closed 01-11-09. Request noted for later releases if obstructions can be overcome

Bug Comments:

---

Feature was originally intended in last release of Claims_DB.

However running the Query and returning a checksum doesn't really save much time. If Claims_DB doesn't cache the results of the query then the front end will have to re-run the query if it doesn't have a cached result. Recommend using the --gen-tbl-sig function to achieve the same end.

Alternatively a front end could implement query result checksumming before it begins any additional processing.
