Tables and Views

 

The DTS PostgreSQL Connector fully supports all tables and views in the PostgreSQL database 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

▪UDT_NAME

▪NUMERIC_PRECISION

▪NUMERIC_SCALE

▪IS_NULLABLE

▪COLUMN_DEFAULT

▪CHAR_LENGTH

▪CHARACTER_OCTET_LENGTH

▪CONSTRAINT -> PRIMARY KEY

▪CONSTRAINT -> FOREIGN_KEY

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