This Natural profile parameter controls the use of the Adabas C
Open/Close commands during a Natural session.
| Possible settings | OFF |
If the OPRB parameter is set to
OFF, a Natural session starts with an Adabas
OP command requesting UPD
(access/update) to the Natural system file. Natural also issues
RELEASE CID (Adabas RC) commands to release all ISN
lists (ISN lists specified in a RETAIN clause of a Natural
FIND statement are not released).

OPRB=(string) |
You can specify an Open request in
accordance with the syntax described below. See also the examples
listed.

| Specification within session | no |
It is required if any of the following conditions are true:
An explicit list of Adabas files to be accessed/updated is to be provided. This is necessary, for example, if Adabas cluster updating or exclusive file control is to be requested.
The Adabas record buffer to be used with the initial Adabas
OP command can be explicitly provided. To access
databases you have to specify the DBIDs and file numbers with their
corresponding access rights at the OPRB string.
The character set for Adabas format W is to be provided. To access databases you have to specify the DBIDs and the required encoding name.
Entries may not contain blanks, must be enclosed in parenthesis and must follow the rules defined in the relevant Adabas documentation.
In addition to the Adabas syntax, internal file numbers can be specified by using the x-y notation (that is, all numbers between x and y).
DBID=(x) specifies the database
for the following access right entries:
ACC=(file-list) |
Specifies access permission (read) for the files in the file list. |
UPD=(file-list) |
Specifies update permission (read/write) for the files in the file list. |
EXU=(file-list) |
Specifies exclusive update permission (exclusive read/write) for the files in the file list. |
WCODE=encoding |
Specifies the encoding for W fields in the Adabas user session
(Adabas for Mainframes).
Required encoding code for Adabas on Mainframes is 4095. |
WCHARSET=charset |
Specifies the default character set used for W fields in record
and value buffers in the Adabas user session (Adabas for UNIX, OpenVMS and
Windows).
Required encoding names for Adabas on UNIX, OpenVMS and Windows are
|
The trailing record buffer dot (.) can be omitted in the
OPRB string because it is appended automatically.
DBID=0 specifies the default record buffer entry and can be
omitted if it is the first DBID listed in the OPRB
string. This default record buffer is taken if there is no specific entry for
the requested database.
Combinations of the keywords ACC, UPD,
EXU and WCODE or WCHARSET must follow
the rules as defined in the relevant Adabas documentation. Natural issues an
OP command at the start of a Natural session and a
CL command at the end of the session. At the end of
a Natural program, only the required RC commands are
issued to release held ISN lists.
(ACC=2,3,4,DBID=15,UPD=3,4,ACC=5)
The following entries were defined:
'UPD=3,4,ACC=5.' for DB 15 'ACC=2,3,4.' for other databases (DB 0)
(DBID=15,ACC=2-7)
The following entry was defined:
'ACC=2,3,4,5,6,7.' for DB 15; access to other databases is not permitted.
(DBID=0,ACC=2,3,4,5.)
The following entry was defined:
'ACC=2,3,4,5.' for all databases (DB 0).
Anmerkung:
If you have Natural Security installed, open/close processing works
the same way as without Natural Security; the OPRB parameter in the security
profile is provided for future use only.
(DBID=0,ACC=2,3,4,5,DBID=12,WCHARSET='UTF-16LE',UPD=3-10)
The following entry was defined:
'ACC=2,3,4,5.' for all databases (DB 0).
WCHARSET='UTF-16LE',UPD=3,4,5,6,7,8,9,10. for DB 12.
