Status: Closed |
TBE DB2LOOK TOOL DOESN'T PRODUCE PROPER DDL FOR TABLES WITH PARENTHESIS IN THE TABLE NAME |
| product: |
DB2 FOR LUW / DB2FORLUW / 950 - DB2 |
| Problem description: |
Tbe db2look tool doesn't produce proper DDL for tables with
parenthesis in the table name. The DDL produced will have extra
spaces that will cause the table to be misnamed if this DDL is
used to recreate.
A simple example:
db2sampl
echo "connect to sample;" > badtab.sql
echo 'CREATE TABLE "BADTABLE(THESE)" (myint int);' >>
badtab.sql
db2 -tvf badtab.sql
db2look -d sample -e -o outfile.ddl
Produces this DDL:
$ grep -iA2 badtable outfile.ddl
-- DDL Statements for table "MSLV97 "."BADTABLE(THESE)"
------------------------------------------------
CREATE TABLE "MSLV97 "."BADTABLE (
THESE)" ( "MYINT" INTEGER )
IN "IBMDB2SAMPLEREL" ; |
