How is the catalog file structured?
The ODBC catalog file is a kisam file that lists all the module files held within your KCML application. Its structure is predefined by the Kisam ODBC driver and is as follows. The text contains the SQL style CREATE TABLE and CREATE INDEX statements to define the columns and keys for the file. We use this method to describe the data structure in kisam files (data dictionaries) as they are better suited to source control systems. The ‘sql’ and ‘kconvdd’ utilities can be used to convert between the SQL statements and data dictionary files.
