Attribute

CreateMap (cm)

Purpose

Determines whether the driver creates the internal files required for a relational map of the native data model when establishing a connection.

Valid Values

0 | 1 | 2 | 3

Behavior

If set to 0 (NotExist), the driver uses the current group of internal files specified by the Schema Map (SchemaMap) option. If the files do not exist, the driver creates them.

If set to 1 (ForceNew), the driver deletes the group of internal files specified by the Schema Map option and creates a new group of these files at the same location.

If set to 2 (No), the driver uses the current group of internal files specified by the Schema Map option. If the files do not exist, the connection fails.

If set to 3 (Session), the driver uses memory to store the internal configuration information and relational map of the native data model. After the session, the view is discarded.

Notes

  • The internal files share the same directory as the schema map configuration file. This directory is specified with the Schema Map connection option.

Default Value

3 (Session)
