LOCopy

SQL

CREATE FUNCTION LOCopy (lob LLD_Lob)
   RETURNS LLD_Lob ;

CREATE FUNCTION LOCopy (lob, LLD_Lob, table_name, CHAR(18), 
column_name, CHAR(18))
   RETURNS LLD_Lob;
;

lob: is a pointer to the smart large object to copy.
table_name: is a table name. This parameter is optional.
column_name: is a column name. This parameter is optional.

This function is an overloaded version of the LOCopy built-in server function. This function is identical to the built-in version of the function, except the first parameter is an lld_lob type rather than a BLOB or CLOB type.

The table_name and column_name parameters are optional. If you specify a table_name and column_name, LOCopy uses the storage characteristics from the specified column_name for the new smart large object that it creates.

If you omit table_name and column_name, LOCopy creates a smart large object with system-specified storage defaults.

See the description of the LOCopy function in the IBM Informix: Guide to SQL Syntax for complete information about this function.

This function returns a pointer to the new lld_lob value.
