GOAL:
Where are the PROGRESS Metaschema tables documented?
GOAL:
Sometimes developers want to know about the metaschema tables: _file.
_field, among others.
FIX:
This solution describes where you can find the documentation for the
PROGRESS Metaschema tables in V6, V7,V8, and V9.
PROGRESS V6
PROGRESS Programming Handbook, Section 15.4.6 PROGRESS Schema Files.
PROGRESS V7 and V8
PROGRESS SQL Guide and Reference, Appendix B PROGRESS Metaschema Tables.
PROGRESS V9
PROGRESS SQL-89 Guide and Reference, Appendix B PROGRESS Metaschema Tables.
You can view the Metaschema tables enabling in the GUI Data Dictionary View/Show Hidden Tables. In character mode just type the name of the table when prompted for a table name.
The following sample program shows all the schema tables and their
fields:
FOR EACH _file WHERE _file-name BEGINS "_":
DISPLAY _file-name.
FOR EACH _field OF _file:
DISPLAY _field-name.
END.
END.
