tibasIndexDef_SetIndexType()

Declaration

tibas_status tibasIndexDef_SetIndexType(
    tibasIndexDef   indexDef,
    tibas_indexType indexType)

Parameter	Description
indexDef	Specifies the IndexDef for the index for which you want to set the index type.
indexType	Specifies the index type.

Use the tibasIndexDef_SetIndexType() function to return the index type for a specified index. The index type can be one of the following:

TIBAS_INDEX_HASH: Specifies that indexing is done by using a hash table.
TIBAS_INDEX_TREE: Specifies that indexing is done using a tree.
When you first create an index definition by calling the tibasIndexDef_Create() function, the index type is set to the default value—TIBAS_INDEX_HASH. If you want to change the index type to TIBAS_INDEX_TREE, you can use tibasIndexDefSetIndexType() to change it.
