– The membership of the member record type in the set was defi ned as
MANDATORY AUTOMATIC.
– Member records (including pointers, see page 219, SCD) are no lo nger than
– 993 bytes for databases with a page length of 2048 bytes,
– 1963 bytes for databases with a page length of 4000 bytes, and
– 4011 bytes for databases with a page length of 8096 bytes.
LIST ATTACHED or LIST DETACHED (without WITHIN)
may be specified only if the same realms were specified in the DDL WITHIN clauses
for the owner and the member record types of this set, provided the set is not a
SYSTEM set. The placement of a list is determined without a DETACHED WITHIN
clause by the placement of the owner.
ATTACHED
may be specified only if the set is not a SYSTEM set.
realm-name
must denote a temporary realm if the set is dynami c.
In the case of LIST, it must be identical to that specified in the DDL WITHIN clause
for the member record type.
integer
specifies an integer between 1 and 20.
Default value: 2
This clause is used to specify the linking of records within the set occurrences.
When setting up a pointer array, list or sort key table, the user can also define the extent of
reorganization for such tables.
If this clause is omitted, the following default values apply for:
– dynamic sets: POINTER-ARRAY DETACHED WITHIN realm-name
– ORDER IS SORTED INDEXED: POINTER-ARRAY DETACHED
– ORDER IS LAST/FIRST/NEXT/PRIOR/SORTED: CHAIN
– non-dynamic sets if ORDER IS IMMATERIAL: CHAIN
