The storedProcedure module is meant to capture information on
procedures that produce data output in the form of a data table.
In an RDBMS one can code complex queries and transactions into
stored procedures and then invoke them directly from front-end
applications. It allows the optional description of any parameters
that are expected to be passed to the procedure when it is called.

The storedProcedure element is meant to capture
information on procedures that produce data output in the form of a
data table. In an RDBMS one can code complex queries and transactions
into stored procedures and then invoke them directly from front-end
applications. This element allows the optional description of any
parameters that are expected to be passed to the procedure when it is
called. A common use of a stored procedure is to rotate a data table
from attributes in columns to attributes in rows for statistical
analysis.
|
attributeList
| This element has no default value. |
| Content of this field: | Description of this field: |
|
|
The list of attributes associated with this
entity. For more information see the eml-attribute
module.
|
constraint
| This element has no default value. |
| Content of this field: | Description of this field: |
|
|
Description of any relational constraints on '
this entity. For more information see the eml-constraint
module.
|
parameter
| This element has no default value. |
| Content of this field: | Description of this field: |
|
|
The parameter elements defines the fields that
may be required to invoke a stored procedure.
|
name
| This element has no default value. |
| Content of this field: | Description of this field: |
|
|
The value of the name field is the name of the
parameter.
Example(s):
SiteID
|
domainDescription
| This element has no default value. |
| Content of this field: | Description of this field: |
|
|
The domainDescription field is used to describe
the valid entries for the parameter being described. A stored
procedure will work only when the parameter's value corresponds to
an actual value in a database.
Example(s):
The database has SiteId values that range from cap1 to
cap10, however the allowable SiteId values for this stored procedure
are cap1,cap2,cap4 or cap7.
|
required
| This element has no default value. |
| Content of this field: | Description of this field: |
|
|
The required field is used to document whether the
parameter being described is or is not required when invoking the
stored procedure.
Example(s):
true
|
repeats
| This element has no default value. |
| Content of this field: | Description of this field: |
|
|
The repeats field is used to document whether or
not the parameter being described can be repeated when invoking the
stored procedure.
Example(s):
true
