Preventing Automatic Recompilations
Collations
You do not have to explicitly enable the similarity check for a collation, because
collations always have the check implicitly enabled. Two collations are similar only if
they are equal. SQL/MP uses the CPRL_COMPAREOBJECTS_ procedure to compare
the two collations. Consequently, two tables that contain character columns associated
with collations are similar only if the collations are equal.
