DB2 - Problem description

Problem IC76188 Status: Closed

DB2DART /DDEL DOES NOT DOUBLE DOUBLE QUOTE CHARACTERS CONTAINED IN
CHARACTER DATA COLUMNS

product:
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 970 - DB2
Problem description:
db2dart /ddel can be used to export data from tables that are 
for some reason unavailable. 
If the data contains a double quote character i.e. "  , then an 
export file should double this character to make the distinction 
with the default delimiter.  The db2 export command does this. 
 
a simple example to illustrate the issue : 
 
create table tab1 ( col1 char(20 )  ); 
insert into tab1 values ( 'ab"cd' ) ; 
export to file.del of del select * from tab1; 
 
cat file.del : 
"ab""cd               " 
 
select tid, fid from sysibm.systables where name = 'TAB1' ; 
 
TID    FID 
------ ------ 
     3     10 
 
 
db2dart sample /ddel 
 
10,3,0,1 
 
$ cat /home/db2inst3/sqllib/db2dump/DART0000/TS3T10.DEL 
"ab"cd               " 
 
the lack of doubling in the output file produced by db2dart 
/ddel prevents the data in the file from being imported 
correctly.
