Syntax Rules for Describing the Data Stream
<noheader_spec> ::= NOHEADER <valRECORD_LENGTH>
valRECORD_LENGTH |
Length of an individual data record in the data stream |
When loading data with a FASTLOAD or DATALOAD Command, you use this syntax rule to describe in instream_spec that a data stream with the FORMATTED BINARY format does not contain special headers. At the same time, you specify the length of an individual data record in the data stream.
This specification is optional.
If the data stream was generated with the DATAEXTRACT command, it contains a special header with the length of an individual data record in the data stream.
If this header is missing, the Loader can use noheader_spec to specify the length of an individual data record. If this rule is missing, the Loader calculates the length of an individual data record using the information on the column positions in the load command.
