4994.0. "CDO definition for RMU/SHOW STAT/OPTION=AREA ?" by 140.83.22.91::DLAWLER (Press any key to continue or any other key to quit...) Mon Feb 03 1997 19:30

Hi,

Will the RMU$SHOW_STATISTICS.CDO file be updated to include the definitions for
the /OPTION=AREA binary output?

Or, does someone already have a definition that they'll share?

Cheers,
Dennis.

No, there is no .CDO for the "by-area" portion of the binary output file.

The primary reason is that the data is "packed" based on the number of storage
areas (slots) in the database.  In other words, reserving more storage areas
affects the packing of the binary output file.

The packing algorith is documented in the release notes, I believe...

In a future version, these data structures may be documented.

(Note that future releases will have even more goodies :-)
