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

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. | |
