ASA Create Database Preferences

The ASA create database preferences determine the default values for creating new ASA databases.

Table 1. ASA Create Database preferences: Options
Property Description
Create an ASA Connection Profile for This Database

Create a new Adaptive Server Anywhere connection profile, and automatically install jConnect meta-information. (Default.)

The default name is the same as the database name. If a connection profile with the same name as the database already exists, WorkSpace generates a new connection profile name by appending a number to the existing name.

Ignore Trailing Blanks in String Comparisons Select this option to be compatible with ISO/ANSI SQL. Default is that blanks are significant for comparisons.
Case Sensitive for String Comparisons Select this option to be compatible with ISO/ANSI SQL. Default is that all comparisons are case insensitive. User IDs and other identifiers are case insensitive, even in case-sensitive databases.
Include Checksum with Each Database Page Include checksums to determine whether a database page has been modified on disk.
ASE Compatible Do not create the SYS.SYSCOLUMNS and SYS.SYSINDEXES views. Default is to create these tables for compatibility with Watcom SQL. These views conflict with Adaptive Server Enterprise compatibility views dbo.syscolumns and dbo.sysindexes.
Table 2. ASA Create Database preferences: Java support
Property Description
