| - | There are two methods to create Omnidex Environments. They can be created interactively using the [[programs:odxadmin:home|Omnidex Administrator]], or they can be created using SQL statements such as [[dev:sql:statements:create_environment:home|CREATE ENVIRONMENT]], [[dev:sql:statements:create_database:home|CREATE DATABASE]], [[dev:sql:statements:create_table:home|CREATE TABLE]] and [[dev:sql:statements:create_index:home|CREATE INDEX]].

| - | The easiest way to add Omnidex Indexing is to add indexing information beside each column. This will not work in all situations, such as when multi-column indexes are being created; however, it will work in many simpler installations.

This will not work in all situations, such as when multi-column indexes are being created; however, it will work in many simpler installations. More complex installations will require the more complex features described in [[dev:sql:statements:create_table:home|CREATE TABLE]] and [[dev:sql:statements:create_index:home|CREATE INDEX]].

| - | When Omnidex indexing is added to an Omnidex Environment, only the metadata about each index is added to the environment. The indexes themselves are not built until an "UPDATE INDEXES" command is issued. This is of great benefit since it allows multiple indexes to be built with one scan of the data. Omnidex applications frequently involve many Omnidex indexes, and building them individually would be prohibitively slow. The example below connects to the newly create environment and updates the indexes. | + | ==== Updating Omnidex Indexes ==== |
