Description
The DB_DATADIR environment variable is used to define the default data directory. Databases in Recital are implemented as directories containing files that correspond to the tables and associated files in the database. Operating System file protection can be applied individually to the files for added security. The directory is a sub-directory of the Recital data directory as set in DB_DATADIR. Databases are created using the SQL CREATE DATABASE command.
Example
// create_dat.prg CREATE DATABASE hr; USE hr; // end of create_dat.prg > ? getenv([DB_DATADIR]) /opt/recital/data > do create_dat > ? default() /opt/recital/data/hr
Products
