The ifx_lo_specget_flags() function

The ifx_lo_specget_flags() function obtains from an LO-specification structure the create-time flags of a smart large object.

Syntax

mint ifx_lo_specget_flags(LO_spec)
   ifx_lo_create_spec_t *LO_spec;
LO_spec
A pointer to the LO-specification structure from which to obtain the flag value.

Usage

The create-time flags provide the following information about a smart large object:
  • Whether to use logging on the smart large object
  • Whether to store the time of last access for the smart large object
These two indicators are masked together into the single flags value. For more information about the create-time flags, see Create-time flags in the LO-specification structure.
Important: You must call the ifx_lo_def_create_spec() function to initialize an LO-specification structure before you call ifx_lo_specget_flags(). You can use the ifx_lo_col_info() function to store storage characteristics that are associated with a particular column in an LO-specification structure.

Return codes

>=0
The function was successful and the return value is the value of the create-time flags.
-1
The function was not successful.
