Name character table

The Name Character table (table type 4) is similar to the Name native data type table. However, in the Name character table, the value of the parameter is provided in character format rather than in the native data type. Example A–11 illustrates the definition of the Name Character table.

Example A–11: Name character table definition 

DEFINE TEMP-TABLE ttCallParam NO-UNDO FIELD cParamName AS CHARACTER FIELD cValue AS CHARACTER INDEX pudx IS UNIQUE PRIMARY cParamName. The following example illustrates setting up data in the name character table type: /* Include the temp-table definition */ {src/adm2/calltables.i &PARAM-TABLE-TYPE = "4"} /* Create the parameter values into the parameter value table */ CREATE ttCallParam. ASSIGN ttCallParam.cParamName = "pcChar" ttCallParam.cValue = "aaa" . CREATE ttCallParam. ASSIGN ttCallParam.cParamName = "piInt" ttCallParam.cValue = "12" . CREATE ttCallParam. ASSIGN ttCallParam.cParamName = "phHndl" ttCallParam.cValue = ? .
