ii_encodings Catalog
The ii_encodings catalog contains 4GL frames and procedures encoded into a compact and portable form. Objects in this catalog are referred to as encoded objects.
This catalog is structured as btree unique on the encode_object and encode_sequence columns:
Column Name
Data Type
Description
object_id
integer
Currently not used. Is set to either 0 or the same value as the encode_object column.
encode_object
integer
The object ID for this encoded object. Various other information about this encoded object (such as name and owner) is kept in the ii_objects catalog.
encode_sequence
smallint
A sequence number, starting from 0, for the rows comprising a single encoded object. Because objects, for example a 4GL frame, can be arbitrarily long, an arbitrary number of ii_encodings rows are required to encode the object.
encode_estring
varchar
(1990)
A segment of the encoded string.
