Sybase provides function-string classes and associated function strings for all supported non-Sybase replicate data servers. Sybase does not provide unique error classes for non-Sybase data servers.
The following limitations apply to HDS function strings:
The function-string classes are loaded into the RSSD when the RSSD is installed. However, the individual function strings must be loaded separately.
The function strings are designed to work with the replicate setup scripts provided by Sybase. Using any other technique to set up the replicate data server, in particular creating the Replication Server support objects (tables), may result in the function strings not working properly.
After the function strings are installed, the Replication Server must be restarted. This is because, with the exception of “input template” function strings, Replication Server caches all function strings at start-up.
