ctupdpad - Update the c-treeDB Pad Resource Utility

When importing an ISAM data file into a c-treeSQL database, the c-treeSQL import utility, ctsqlimp, allows specifying the padding and delimiter characters used to pad string fields in a data file. The c-tree Update Pad Resource Utility, ctupdpad, provides a way to change the padding and delimiter characters in the c-treeDB padding resource.

Syntax

The usage of this utility is as follows:

ctupdpad [options] table-name pad-char delimiter-char

Options are any combination of the following:

-s server-name [Default: FAIRCOMS]

-u user-name [Default: ADMIN]

-p password [Default: ADMIN]

The pad-char and delimiter-char values are specified with their corresponding ASCII code values.

Examples

  • To set the pad char to space and delimiter to space:

ctupdpad table.dat 32 32

  • To set the pad char to space and delimiter to nul:

ctupdpad table.dat 32 0

  • To set the pad char to nul and delimiter to nul:

ctupdpad table.dat 0 0
