Syntax Rules for Describing the Data Stream

Syntax

<longfile_code_spec> ::= <code_spec > | BINARY

Use

With this specification, you define the default value for the interpretation of LONG data streams.

Using this syntax rule, you can also transform LONG data between various code types when you load or unload the data.

If you load/unload ASCII LONG data into an ASCII database or UCS2 LONG data into a UNICODE database, the data does not have to be converted.

The following combinations are possible (internal database data type and external data type):

Internal database data type

Possible code attributes of LONG data stream during unloading

LONG ASCII

ASCII, UCS2, UTF8

LONG UNICODE

UCS2, UTF8

LONG BYTE

BINARY, ASCII (HEX), UCS2 (HEX), UTF8 (HEX)

 

Internal database data type

Possible code attributes of LONG data stream during loading

LONG ASCII

ASCII

LONG UNICODE

ASCII, UCS2, UTF8

LONG BYTE

BINARY, ASCII, UCS2 (HEX), UTF8 (HEX)
