Summary of the "subsets_" fields in ListManager
The subsets table stores information about every subset created in the ListManager system. Subsets allow the list administrator to provide the SQL statement that is used to generate the member list for a posting. The SQL statement is broken into several parts in this table to allow it to be recombined in a generic way across multiple database vendors.
Subsets must be attached to a list, but a list may have multiple subsets.
Primary key: SubsetID_
Field Name |
Description |
Version Added |
ClauseAdd_ |
SQL statements that would be appended to the end of the SQL statement, such as 'group by' or 'having'. Currently unimplement. (text, NULL) |
|
ClauseAfterSelect_ |
Data to be added to the subset SQL after the select clause. Designed to allow Oracle user to provide a index hint. (text, NULL) |
|
ClauseFrom_ |
The SQL 'from' line. This is the list of all the tables participating in the SQL statement. (text, NULL) |
|
ClauseOrderBy_ |
The 'order by' SQL statement. This is for display purposes only. (text, NULL) |
|
ClauseSelect_ |
The 'select' line of the SQL statement. These are the columns to retrieve. (text, NULL) |
|
ClauseWhere_ |
The 'where' portion of the SQL statement. Defines the reductions and join rules used to retrieve data. (text, NULL) |
|
Desc_ |
A short description of the subset. (varchar(90), NULL) |
|
List_ |
The list that this subset is associated with. (varchar(60), NOT NULL) |
|
Name_ |
The name of the subset. This is used as name-list@server for email postings. (varchar (60), NOT NULL) |
|
NumTestRecords_ |
The number of records to retrieve when testing the subset. (int, NOT NULL ) |
|
AddWhereList_ |
Should ListManager automatically add the 'where' criteria to restrict this query to the list name that this subset is associated with, or can this subset get to data outside of this list. Default is T, meaning to add the where criteria and keep the subset restricted to the specific list. Setting this to F allows postings to every member on the server, so is very dangerous. (bool) |
|
AddWhereMemberType_ |
Should ListManager automatically add the 'where' criteria to restrict this query to 'normal' members? Default is 'T'. Normally ListManager would only send to 'normal' members, not to held or unsubscribed or other statuses. Setting this field to 'F' sends to every member type in the system, so is very dangerous. (bool) |
|
AddWhereSubType_ |
Should ListManager automatically add the 'where' criteria to restrict this query to 'mail' members? Default is 'T'. Normal postings only go to members who want normal 'mail' delivery, not those wanting digest or who have requested not to be sent mail. Setting this field to 'F' allows every member type to be sent to, so is very dangerous. (bool) |
|
SubsetID_ |
Identifier for the subset. (int, identity, NOT NULL) |
|
Type_ |
Whether this subset is "normal" or "triggered" (varchar(20), NULL) |
