GOAL:
What is the purpose of the CLOB-TYPE field in an OpenEdge database .df file?
GOAL:
What does the CLOB-TYPE field indicate?
FACT(s) (Environment):
All Supported Operating Systems
OpenEdge 10.1x
FIX:
The CLOB-TYPE field in a .df file simply indicates if the CLOB uses the DB code page, or if it has been set explicitly to some other code page. A value of '1' indicates that the CLOB uses the DB code page and a value of 2 indicates that the code page for the CLOB has been specifically chosen. This value of 2 also includes CLOBS where the code page has been selected and that code page happens to be the same as the DB code page.
The CLOB-TYPE value is used internally by the client and should not be modified.
