R: Set data mappings between an DBMS and R.

dbSetDataMappings {DBI} | R Documentation

## Set data mappings between an DBMS and R.

### Description

This generic is deprecated since no working implementation was ever produced.

### Usage

    dbSetDataMappings(res, flds, ...)

### Arguments

`res` | An object inheriting from DBIResult.
`flds` | a field description object as returned by `dbColumnInfo`.
`...` | Other arguments passed on to methods.

### Details

Sets one or more conversion functions to handle the translation of DBMS data types to R objects. This is only needed for non-primitive data, since all DBI drivers handle the common base types (integers, numeric, strings, etc.)

The details on conversion functions (e.g., arguments, whether they can invoke initializers and/or destructors) have not been specified.
