Each column has attributes such as a name, a type, and a maximum length (if text or binary). </p> <p>A column definition is encapsulated by <xref href="GUID-0130C7AA-B143-32A4-BB33-0D90CEDABAAE.dita"><apiname>TDbCol</apiname></xref>. </p> <p><b>Column set</b> </p> <p>A set of columns that describe a table are encapsulated in <xref href="GUID-9B02D75E-1EE0-349E-9900-BEC1CAF9DECE.dita"><apiname>CDbColSet</apiname></xref>. The set can be iterated over using <xref href="GUID-C76AA489-BFF5-3D6E-BB26-C84A3E7887ED.dita"><apiname>TDbColSetIter</apiname></xref>.</p> <p><b>Index key</b> </p> <p>An index key orders one or more table columns (keys). It has attributes such as being unique or primary, a comparison specification for text columns, and a list of columns which make up the key. </p> <p>The index key is encapsulated in <xref href="GUID-0CA88018-0265-3853-AC64-3B938DD0F60C.dita"><apiname>CDbKey</apiname></xref>. A column for the key is encapsulated in <xref href="GUID-DDB34DBF-4A96-3430-820A-97AB5585962D.dita"><apiname>TDbKeyCol</apiname></xref>.</p> </section> </conbody></concept> |
