Processing the Cascade IP

This chapter describes how to process the Cascade Implementation Package (IP) to create the Referential Integrity (RI) trigger routines and the RI Trigger DLL for dynamic RI Triggers. During processing, the Installation Tool:

Registers the IP in the configuration database
Splits the IP source members into the appropriate source locations
Compiles the source members
Builds the RI Trigger DLL for dynamic RI Triggers

The functions associated with processing the cascade IP are performed through the Installation Tool menu.

If the Process modules marked for Compatibility option was selected, the remote file includes the keyword pcompat=YES, which will cause the source members to be compiled twice—once using the NODLL compiler option and again using the DLL compiler option.

If the Dynamically Link RI Triggers option was selected, the remote file includes the keyword dynamri=YES, which will cause all of the RI Trigger modules to be included in a DLL by the same name as the CASCADE name. The RI Trigger DLL will be placed in the loadlib associated with the RI EXEC lib.

If Batch RI Library is specified, the installation process will also create a batch version of dynamic RI DLL executable and will save it in this library automatically. DB2 attachment type for batch dynamic RI will be as specified by the TIRDBATT parameter, defaulting to DSN.
