SASLibrary


Subclass of RelationalSchema


Overview

Represents a SAS library that is defined by the SAS LIBNAME statement. 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.

Security Inheritance and Enforcement Rules

The following is a list of associations that are used to determine if this object should inherit access controls from another object (inheritance) or if the association is allowed for the object (enforcement). For more information about inheritance and enforcement rules, see the SAS 9.2 Intelligence Platform: Security Administration Guide.

Attributes

Name Description Type Length
Engine The engine specification used in the SAS LIBNAME statement.   String 8  
IsDBMSLibname A Boolean value that indicates whether this library uses a connection to an external database server.   int  
IsPreassigned A Boolean value that 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 statement was issued via some other mechanism.   int  
Libref The libref used by the SAS LIBNAME statement.   String 8
