PBNoCatalog – PB Docs 2019

Description

Specifies that PowerBuilder will not check for the existence of
catalog tables when creating a DataWindow object at runtime.

Applies to

O90 Oracle9i

O10 Oracle 10g

ORA Oracle (for 11g and later)

Syntax

Default value

PBNoCatalog=’NO’

Usage

When a DataWindow object is created dynamically using
SyntaxFromSQL and modified so that it can use stored procedure updates,
PowerBuilder looks for the PowerBuilder catalog tables. If
PBCatalogOwner is not set, PowerBuilder looks for the catalog tables
under the owner SYSTEM. The DataWindow created may be different
depending on whether PBCatalogOwner was set, and errors may be generated
if the tables do not exist under the owner SYSTEM. To prevent
PowerBuilder from using the catalog tables, set the PBNoCatalog
parameter to true.

This parameter can also be set in the PBODB initialization file
for connection to Oracle through the ODBC and OLE DB drivers.

This parameter cannot be set dynamically. The value set when the
connection is made remains in effect until it is disconnected.

Examples

To tell PowerBuilder not to use catalog tables, type the following
in code:
