Use this command to replaced data with data found in another table.
For example, lets say you performed the following extract: pdm_extract -f "SELECT id,category FROM Call_Req" > output.txt. The resulting extract would have the category entries displayed in their persid format such as pcat:400001. If you wanted to replace the category persid with the sym, the pdm_deref can perform that function.
Usage
pdm_extract [-s] specfile [-c|-e|-r] [-d] [-h] [-n] [-p] [-u] [-v 1|2] <filename
| Command | Description | Remarks |
|---|---|---|
| -s specfile | file containing SQL statement | |
| -c | csv output | |
| -e | csv output with double double quotes | |
| -r | informal report output | |
| -d | diagnostics | |
| -h | Help | |
| -p | preserve whitespace | |
| -u | no headers | |
| -v [1|2] | verbose. 1 is brief and 2 prints to a log file. | |
| filename | file to be processed |
Specfile Example
A pdm_extract in the following format: <source lang=text>TABLE Call_Req id category { "499998" ,"pcat:400001" } { "499999" ,"pcat:400001" }</source>...will be change to this format: <source lang=text>TABLE Call_Req id category.sym { "499998" ,"Sofware.Adobe Reader" }
{ "499999" ,"Softtware.Adobe Writer" }</source>...by running a specfile containing the following SQL Statement:
<source lang=sql>Deref { input = category output = category.sym rule = "SELECT sym FROM Prob_Category WHERE persid=?" }</source>
Examples
- Deref of a basic text file
