Omnidex Documentation Important Information

Dynamic Information Systems is currently upgrading the Omnidex Documentation so that Omnidex is fully documented as of Omnidex Version 5.1 scheduled for release in January 2010.

Currently the 5.0 documentation contains information on version 5.0 as well as some information on the 5.1 Data Definition Language statements such as:

• CREATE ENVIRONMENT
• CREATE DATABASE
• CREATE TABLE
• CREATE INDEX
• DROP INDEX
• DROP TABLE
• DROP DATABASE
• DROP ENVIRONMENT

Note that the DDL statements will not be available until the Omnidex 5.1 release.

For existing customers, use the following guide to determine whether to use an Omnidex XML Environment or an Omnidex Compiled Environment.

• Previous to version 5.0: use OACOMP to compile an Omnidex Environment Source into an Omnidex Compiled Environment.

• After version 5.0 and before version 5.1, use OACOMP to translate an Omnidex Environment Source into an Omnidex XML Environment.

• After version 5.1 and before version 5.2, use OdxSQL and Omnidex Data Definition Language Statements such as CREATE ENVIRONMENT and CREATE TABLE to maintain an Omnidex XML Environment.

• After version 5.2, use the Windows application OdxAdmin or OdxSQL to maintain an Omnidex XML Environment.

• For all versions after version 5.0, continue to use an Omnidex Compiled Environment for features only supported with an Omnidex Compiled Environment.
