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™.

The etx index parametersThis section describes the index parameters that can be used to customize an etx index. You specify index parameters in the USING clause of the CREATE INDEX statement.
The CHAR_SET parameterUse the CHAR_SET index parameter to specify which characters in your text data are indexed. Characters that are not indexed are treated as white space.
User-defined character sets

User-defined character sets

If the built-in character sets are inadequate for your text documents, you can define your own character set that defines the characters you want to index. You must create the user-defined character set before specifying it as an option to the CHAR_SET index parameter. Use the etx_CreateCharSet() routine to create your own character set.
