Overview

Active Record supports multiple database systems. AbstractAdapter and related classes form the abstraction layer which makes this possible. An AbstractAdapter represents a connection to a database, and provides an abstract interface for database-specific functionality such as establishing a connection, escaping values, building the right SQL fragments for ‘:offset’ and ‘:limit’ options, etc.

All the concrete database adapters follow the interface laid down in this class. ActiveRecord::Base.connection returns an AbstractAdapter object, which you can use.

Most of the methods in the adapter are useful during migrations. Most notably, the instance methods provided by SchemaStatement are very useful.

#requires_reloading?Boolean

Returns true if its required to reload the connection between requests for development mode. This is not the case for Ruby/MySQL and it’s not necessary for any adapters except SQLite.

Returns:

  • (Boolean)


369
370
371
# File 'lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb', line 369

def requires_reloading?
  false
end

#reset!Object

Reset the state of this connection, directing the DBMS to clear transactions and other connection-related server-side state. Usually a database-dependent operation.

The default implementation does nothing; the implementation should be overridden by concrete adapters.

357
358
# File 'lib/active_record/connection_adapters/abstract_adapter.rb', line 356

def reset!
