RDDSETDEFAULT()
Set or return the default RDD for the application
------------------------------------------------------------------------------
Syntax
RDDSETDEFAULT([<cNewDefaultRDD>])
--> cPreviousDefaultRDD
Arguments
<cNewDefaultRDD> is a character string, the name of the RDD that is
to be made the new default RDD in the application.
Returns
RDDSETDEFAULT() returns a character string, cPreviousDefaultRDD, the
name of the previous default driver. The default driver is the driver
that CA-Clipper uses if you do not explicitly specify an RDD with the
VIA clause of the USE command.
Description
RDDSETDEFAULT() is an RDD function that sets or returns the name of the
previous default RDD driver and, optionally, sets the current driver to
the new RDD driver specified by cNewDefaultRDD. If <cNewDefaultDriver>
is not specified, the current default driver name is returned and
continues to be the current default driver.
This function replaces the DBSETDRIVER() function.
Examples
// If the default driver is not DBFNTX, make it the default
IF ( RDDSETDEFAULT() != "DBFNTX" )
cOldRdd := RDDSETDEFAULT( "DBFNTX" )
