Hello everyone,
any idea for a better name than DataMode for our new enum anyone?
The requirements are:
- The enum contains the items ReadOnly, Nullable (or Optional), NotNull (or
Required), AutoGenerated
- The name should be short (<=8) to keep data definitions small
- It should be understandable.
How about:
- Mode
- Modifier
- Mod (short for Modifier)
- (just) M
- Def
- Xtra
- X
- Claim (would semantically be right but sounds odd, doesn't it?)
Here is an example of where it is used (see DataMode...):
DEPARTMENT_ID = addColumn("DEPARTMENT_ID", DataType.AUTOINC, 0,
DataMode.AutoGenerated, "DEP_ID_SEQUENCE");
NAME = addColumn("NAME", DataType.TEXT, 80,
DataMode.NotNull);
HEAD = addColumn("HEAD", DataType.TEXT, 80,
DataMode.Nullable);
BUSINESS_UNIT = addColumn("BUSINESS_UNIT", DataType.TEXT, 4,
DataMode.NotNull, "ITTK");
UPDATE_TIMESTAMP= addColumn("UPDATE_TIMESTAMP", DataType.DATETIME, 0,
DataMode.AutoGenerated);
Looking forward for your responses.
Regards
Rainer
