Transformations
« on: February 13, 2010, 03:22:06 am »
I am currently using the 'Transform Current Package' to create a DDL package with my database model in it.

I'm a little confused about where all the mappings are coming from. I am going from TC211 language to Oracle. When the attributes are converted nothing seems to change, even if I have set Database Datatype Mappings to change it.

When I read the help for the CONVERT_TYPE macros that is used in the transformation it says that the original type is assumed to be a platform independent common type.

Can someone explain where it gets the mappings from, and what it does if it isn't a common type?
