Top  Previous  Next


The Language Editor allows you to create new languages and to edit the existing ones (see How to create a language and How to edit a language).

Language  
 
The main language parameters are set on the Language tab.

Name
Set the name of the new language in the edit field.

Handler
This drop-down list allows you to select the handler function for the language from the list of all database functions.

Validator function
Select the validation function for this laguage from the drop-down list.

Trusted
Check this option to specify that the call handler for the language is safe, that is, it does not offer an unprivileged user any functionality to bypass access restrictions.

DDL  
 
On the DDL tab you can view the SQL text for creating the language with the properties you set. This text can't be edited, but can be copied to the clipboard.

To call the PostgreSQL Reference, click button Help on SQL on the toolbar.

Button Default Size brings the window to the default size (restricted by the main window and the DB Explorer).

The drop-down list of the current database languages on the toolbar allows you to switch the edited language.

When you are done, click button Compile on the toolbar to start the process of compilation. The Compile Window will appear where you will be able to view and edit the result SQL statement for creating the new language. Commit the transaction, and if it is successful, the new language will be created or the language parameters will be changed.
