Maximum Alpha Field Size |
|
Note: Even thought the theoretical maximum size of an alpha field is 4GB, we have imposed edit checks to limit the maximum size of an alpha field to 1MB (1048576) in characters. |
|
> > | Note: Large alpha field implementation in the initial release is only implemented for Permanent disk files stored in Oracle. |
| This change effects... |

- Permanent (Oracle) disk files
|
|
- Memory Files
- Working Storage files
- Work fields
|
|
- Consecutive disk files (no initial support for large alpha fields)
- Temporary disk files (no initial support for large alpha fields)
- One-Record disk files (no initial support for large alpha fields)
|

- Non-Oracle Permanent Disk Files (no initial support for large alpha fields)
Note: Large Field support on Data entry is limited to the Java Client at this time. The Character mode and Win32 client do not support large fields. |
| Test Plan:
DD Edit Checks: (untested) |
|
Note: The following FMS interfaces will not initially support large fields... |

Using a Subroutine process, can you store and retrieve 1M character in an alpha field? |

Using an Output process can you store and retrieve 1M characters in an alpha field for the following as Text and PDF... (I'm not sure this is a doable test, is there a way to print 1M character in an Appx report from a single field?) |
