Tables and Views

 

The DTS MySQL Connector fully supports all tables and views in MySQL and does not differentiate between the two.

 

DTS Naming

 

 

Metadata

 

The connector is also capable of extracting metadata regarding the table/view columns:

DATA_TYPE

CHARACTER_MAXIMUM_LENGTH

NUMERIC_PRECISION

DATETIME_PRECISION

NUMERIC_SCALE

IS_NULLABLE

ORDINAL_POSITION

CONSTRAINT -> PRIMARY_KEY

Standard functionality only makes use of DATA_TYPE, ORDINAL_POSITION and PRIMARY_KEY, but the other items are available for extension in DTS descriptor objects.
