Description
The INSTALL command imports Recital bridge files and tables and their associated structure, data, memo, dictionary and multiple index files from ASCII format to allow them to be transferred from a binary incompatible format. The export on the source machine requires the use of the BUILD command.
<filename>
The <filename> is the name of a '.xat' file. This is a text created by the BUILD command on the source machine.
FROM <directory>
If the optional FROM <directory> clause is used, the .xat files and exported files from <directory> will be used to create the table or tables and their associated files in the specified directory.
Example
On source machine demo.xaf contains the following lines:
dbf,customer.rdb dbf,accounts.rdb dbf,state.rdb dbf,product.rdb brg,cisamdemo.dbf
build demo into ./transfer
On target machine, once files have been transferred
install demo from ./transfer
