Extending HCL OneDB™Beyond standard relational database objects, HCL OneDB™ can be extended to handle specialized data types, access methods, routines, and other objects. HCL OneDB™ includes many built-in extensions that are fully integrated in the database server. HCL OneDB™ also provides DataBlade® modules, which are packages of extended database objects for a particular purpose and that are installed separately from the database server. Alternatively, you can create your own user-defined objects for HCL OneDB™.
Creating extensionsYou can create user-defined data types, routines, access methods, and other database objects to suit your needs. You can use application programming interfaces to write user-defined routines and applications that access data in HCL OneDB™ databases.
DataBlade® API Function ReferenceThe HCL OneDB™ DataBlade® API Function Reference describes the DataBlade® API functions and the subset of functions that the DataBlade® API supports.
Function descriptionsThis section gives comprehensive reference information about the functions that are valid within DataBlade® API modules. It lists the function descriptions in alphabetical order, with syntax, usage information, and return values for the functions.
The mi_lo_specset_sbspace() functionThe mi_lo_specset_sbspace() function sets the sbspace name of a smart large object in an LO-specification structure.

The mi_lo_specset_sbspace() function

The mi_lo_specset_sbspace() function sets the sbspace name of a smart large object in an LO-specification structure.

Syntax

mi_integer mi_lo_specset_sbspace(LO_spec, sbspace_name)
   MI_LO_SPEC *LO_spec;
   const char *sbspace_name;

LO_spec: A pointer to the LO-specification structure in which to save the sbspace name.
sbspace_name: A pointer to the sbspace name for the smart large object.


Valid in client LIBMI application?	Valid in user-defined routine?
Yes	Yes

Usage

The mi_lo_specset_sbspace() function is the LO-specification accessor function that sets the sbspace name for a new smart large object. The name of the sbspace can be at most 18 characters long and must be null terminated.

Important: Before you call mi_lo_specset_sbspace(), you must initialize an LO-specification structure.

When you set the sbspace name with mi_lo_specset_sbspace(), you override any column-level or system-specified sbspace name in the LO-specification structure. You then pass this LO-specification structure to a smart-large-object creation function (such as mi_lo_create()) to provide the sbspace name as a user-supplied storage characteristic for a new smart large object.

For more information about the sbspace name of a smart large object or on how to use the mi_lo_specset_sbspace() function, see the HCL OneDB™ DataBlade® API Programmer's Guide.

Return values

MI_OK: The function was successful.
MI_ERROR: The function was not successful.
