In order to better support SQL/DS users, Watcom is now making available
a beta version its MAKEVIEW utility. MAKEVIEW creates DB2/2 compatible
views of system tables for SQL/DS databases.
If you connect to a SQL/DS system using the VX-REXX database objects,
the ListColumns and ListTables methods will not function correctly.
Also, the VX-REXX SQL Editor will not list the tables or columns in
your database. The reason for this is that the VX-REXX database
controls assume the SQL/DS system tables are identical to those for
DB2/2, which is not the case. The MAKEVIEW program creates a number
of database views that simulate the required system tables. After
running MAKEVIEW, the VX-REXX SQL Editor and the individual methods
listed above will function correctly.
You can download a copy of MAKEVIEW from the Watcom FTP site
(ftp.watcom.on.ca) or our World Wide Web site (www.watcom.on.ca), or
from our CompuServe form (type GO WATCOM).
