This command is reserved for specific needs. It must be used with care since it can affect database performance.

Description

The ADJUST TABLE CACHE PRIORITY command modifies the priority value of the data related to aTable in cache for the current process. A call to this command replaces any priority value previously adjusted through the same command in the same process. This command adjusts the priority for a temporary need, for example during a query or an import.

Note: This command only works in local mode (4D Server and 4D); it cannot be used in 4D remote mode.

This command handles priority for data in scalar fields only (date, number, or string types). Priority for fields of binary type (Blobs, texts, pictures, and objects) is handled by the ADJUST BLOBS CACHE PRIORITY command.

In the priority parameter, pass one of the following constants from the "Cache Management" theme:

ConstantComment
Cache priority low
Cache priority very low
Cache priority normalSets the cache priority to its default value
Cache priority high
Cache priority very high

Example

You want to temporarily change the cache priority for the [Docs] scalar fields:

 ADJUST TABLE CACHE PRIORITY([Docs];Cache priority low)
  // ... do some specific operation
 ADJUST TABLE CACHE PRIORITY([Docs];Cache priority normal)
