SQL programmingYou can use the HCL OneDB™ implementation of the SQL language to develop applications for HCL OneDB™ database servers.
Guide to SQL: ReferenceThe HCL OneDB™ Guide to SQL: Reference contains the reference information for the system catalog tables, data types, and environment variables of the HCL OneDB™ dialect of the SQL language, as implemented in HCL OneDB™. These topics also include information about the stores_demo, sales_demo, and superstore_demo databases that are included with HCL OneDB™.
System catalog tablesThe system catalog consists of tables and views that describe the structure of the database. Sometimes called the data dictionary, these table objects contain everything that the database knows about itself. Each system catalog table contains information about specific elements in the database. Each database has its own system catalog.
SYSXTDDESC

SYSXTDDESC

The sysxtddesc system catalog table provides a text description of each user-defined data type (UDT) defined in the database. The sysxtddesc table has the following columns.


Column	Type	Explanation
extended_id	INTEGER	Code uniquely identifying the extended data types
seqno	SMALLINT	Value to order and identify one line of the description of the UDT A new line is created only if the remaining text string is larger than 255 bytes.
description	CHAR(256)	Textual description of the extended data type

A composite index on extended_id and seqno allows duplicate values.
