Installation and Testing of the New Code
After you have written all of the routines necessary to define and manipulate the new data types and functions, you must create the routine IIudadt_register.
Windows: After IIudadt_register is created, you must rebuild the IILIBUDT.DLL. The IIudadt_register function serves as the entry point to the IILIBUDT Dynamic Linked Library that gives the DBMS Server access to the new data types and functions.
UNIX: After IIudadt_register is created, you must relink the images to give the DBMS Server access to the new data types and functions.
VMS: IIudadt_register serves as the entry point to the shared image that the various components of the DBMS Server use to access the new data types and functions.
For information about these steps in the procedure, see the chapter "Passing Definitions to the DBMS Server" and the chapter “Installing and Testing Data Types.”
Install your new code in a test installation and test it thoroughly before moving it to the target installation.
