TDataSet.OnEditError

Event triggered when an edit operation fails.

Declaration

Source position: db.pas line 1711

Description

OnEditError is triggered when the TDataset.Edit method fails to put the dataset in edit mode because the underlying database engine reported an error. The event handler can be used to indicate what the response to the failed edit operation should be. To this end, it gets the exception object passed to it (parameter E), and it can examine this object to return an appropriate action in the DataAction parameter. The following responses are supported:

daFail

The operation should fail (an exception will be raised)

daAbort

The operation should be aborted (edits are undone, and an EAbort exception is raised)

daRetry

Retry the operation.
