dropEmulatedTempTablesR Documentation

Drop all emulated temp tables.

Description

On some DBMSs, like Oracle and BigQuery, DatabaseConnector through SqlRender emulates temp tables in a schema provided by the user. Ideally, these tables are deleted by the application / R script creating them, but for various reasons orphan temp tables may remain. This function drops all emulated temp tables created in this session only.

Usage

dropEmulatedTempTables(
  connection,
  tempEmulationSchema = getOption("sqlRenderTempEmulationSchema")
)

Arguments

connection

The connection to the database server created using either connect() or dbConnect().

tempEmulationSchema

Some database platforms like Oracle and Impala do not truly support temp tables. To emulate temp tables, provide a schema with write privileges where temp tables can be created.

Value

Invisibly returns the list of deleted emulated temp tables.
