Module mdb - Manager Data Base Functions

The module mdb (manager data base interface) is the program interface to general manager data base functions. All functions of the module are low-level functions, which you seldomly need. Their application requires a profound knowledge of the logics DataView uses to store data and structures in the data base.


Functions must be used with great care

dal_mdb_cre_tab, dal_mdb_del_tab
Creates or deletes tables in the data base based on the definition in the DataView data dictionary. If you use this function to delete tables which are not empty, this may result in severe inconsistencies in the data model if you do not remove the internal references of linked records, too.
