Default Text Configuration Objects

SAP Sybase IQ provides default text configuration objects.

The default text configuration object default_char is used with non-NCHAR data. This configuration is created the first time you create a text configuration object or TEXT index.

The text configuration object default_nchar is supported for use with NCHAR for TEXT indexes on IN SYSTEM tables; you cannot use default_nchar text configuration for TEXT indexes on tables.

The table "Default text configuration settings" shows the default settings for default_char and default_nchar, which are best suited for most character-based languages. We strongly suggest that you do not change the settings in the default text configuration objects.

If you delete a default text configuration object, it is automatically re-created with default values the next time you create a TEXT index or text configuration object.
