Determining the ultimate execution hierarchy between two or more execution objects can be complicated. What happens when a combination of dependent execution objects with various execution attributes makes the execution order unclear?
For example, an EC3 client application can invoke an EC1 stored procedure. Do both execution objects take EC3 attributes, EC1 attributes, or EC2 attributes?
Understanding how Adaptive Server determines execution precedence is important for getting what you want out of your execution class assignments. Two fundamental rules, the precedence rule and the scope rule, can help you determine execution order.
