The
Replication property is used to:
- identify the replication mode used for a data file (defined in the data model editor or through programming)
- specify the replication mode used for a data file (when the file is described by programming).
This property can only be used in a log-based replication.
// Checks whether the data file is configured for replication (log-based replication)
IF Customer.Replication = hNotReplicated THEN Info("Unable to replicate")
Syntax
Finding out the replication mode Hide the details
<Current mode> = <Data file>.Replication
<Current mode>: Integer constant
The replication modes are as follows: | |
| hMasterReplica | The data file is a master replica (HCreateMasterReplica was used to create the master replica) |
| hNotReplicated | The data file is not configured for a log-based replication. To implement log-based replication, select "Replication" in the file characteristics in the data model editor. |
| hReplicated | The data file is configured to be replicated. |
| hSubscriberReplica | The data file is a subscriber replica (HCreateSubscriberReplica was used to create the subscriber replica) |
<Data file>: Character string
Name of the file used. This name was defined in the data model editor or with the File Description type.
Defining the replication mode Hide the details
<Data file>.Replication = <Replication mode>
<Data file>: Character string
Name of the file used. This name was defined by the File Description type.
<Replication mode>: Integer constant
The replication modes are as follows: | |
| hNotReplicated | The data file is not configured for a log-based replication. |
| hReplicated | The data file is configured to be replicated. |
