INFO DEFINE Command
INFO DEFINE Command
INFO DEFINE is an SQLCI command that displays the attributes and values
associated with one or more existing DEFINEs. (INFO DEFINE is similar to the TACL
command INFO DEFINE and the OSS command info_define.)
define
is the name of an existing DEFINE or DEFINEs for which you want information.
You can specify define as a DEFINE template. A DEFINE template allows you to
use these special characters as part of a name:
In TACL or OSS, but not in SQLCI, you can also use these special characters:
DETAIL
requests the value of each attribute for the DEFINE that has a value. If you omit
DETAIL, INFO DEFINE displays only the CLASS attribute and one other attribute
(depending on CLASS).
Consideration—INFO DEFINE
INFO DEFINE does not display the working attribute set. (Use SHOW DEFINE to
display the working attribute set.)
