Scheduling and Event Handling Tasks

This section collects together tasks related to automating schedules and events.

• Adding a Schedule or Event to a Database
  You can add schedules and events in Sybase Central and by using SQL.
• Adding a Manually-Triggered Event to a Database
  If you create an event handler without a schedule or system event to trigger it, it is executed only when manually triggered.
• Triggering an Event Handler
  Any event handler can be manually triggered, as well as executed as a result of a schedule or system event. You may find it useful to manually trigger events during development of event handlers, and also, for certain events, in production environments.
• Debugging an Event Handler
  Debugging is a regular part of any software development. Event handlers can be debugged during the development process.
• Retrieving Information about an Event or Schedule
  Sybase IQ stores information about events, system events, and schedules in the system tables SYSEVENT, SYSEVENTTYPE, and SYSSCHEDULE.
