Class ExternalDataType

java.lang.Object
com.pervasive.datarush.schema.ExternalDataType
public class ExternalDataType extends Object
External data types are those DataRush interacts with in some way but does not support internally in dataflow queues (they are not PortTypes). Currently, all of these types come from the Pervasive Data Integrator product and are uniquely identified by their Pervasive data type code.

An ExternalDataType is constructed with an indicator of whether or not it is character set encoded. This is supported so customizers of these types may change their behavior based upon the requirement of a decoder. Data types are broadly divided into binary and character set encoded for the purposes of many DataRush readers.
