SASLibrary
Subclass of RelationalSchema
Overview
Represents a SAS library. A SAS library is a collection of one or more SAS files that are recognized by SAS software and that are referenced and stored as a unit. Each file is a member of the library. SAS libraries are accessed with a LIBNAME statement. The LIBNAME statement specifies the data engine and any required or optional parameters for accessing the data source. The SASLibrary metadata type stores the LIBNAME statement arguments necessary to access a particular data source in a metadata repository.
Security Inheritance and Enforcement Rules
The following list of associations is used to determine if this object should inherit access controls from another object (inheritance), or if the association is allowed for the object (enforcement). An association will not be created unless the calling user is authorized to update one or both objects involved in the association. For more information about inheritance and enforcement rules, see the SAS Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.

Attributes
| Name | Description | Type | Length |
| Engine | The engine specification used by the SAS LIBNAME statement. | String | 8 |
| IsDBMSLibname | A boolean that indicates whether this library uses a connection to an external database server. | int | |
| IsPreassigned | This boolean indicates whether the library is pre-assigned in the SAS session. If true, the other attributes of this object that contain information used by a LIBNAME statement may be provided for documentation purposes only but is not required to access the library, because the LIBNAME has been assigned via some other mechanism. | int | |
| Libref | The libref used by the SAS LIBNAME statement. | String | 8 |

Associations
= indicates the resident side of an association, or where the association is persisted for cross-repository associations. If no resident side is indicated, this association may not cross repository boundaries.

Engine
Type: String 8The engine specification used by the SAS LIBNAME statement.
IsDBMSLibname
Type: intA boolean that indicates whether this library uses a connection to an external database server.
IsPreassigned
