Author Again: Can a trigger update a table in other database?
Renato Cramer

2005-08-25, 7:23 am

Hello,

There is on SQL Anywhere 5.5.04 User's Guide a chapter:
"Coordinating transactions with multiple database engines".
Also, there is reference to two-phase commit algorithm to
coordinate transactions across multiple database servers.

Is the SA 5 User's Guide wrong?
What version implement this feature?

I'm confused.
Please, can someone explain me?

Thanks in advance,
Cramer.

No. But the feature you need (that is, possibility to access another
database from within your database) has been introduced in ASA6 and has
nothing to do with the part of manual you quote. Bottom line: you need
ASA6+. SA 5.5 is a very reliable software, but it doesn't have some
advanced features.
