The createentity command creates a dynamic entity. A dynamic entity is an entity that has data stored externally instead of in a repository. When you create a dynamic entity, the Trillium performs only a limited analysis of the data.

Note: To create a real entity, that is an entity that loads the data into Trillium, you must use the loaddata command (seeCommand—loadentity ).

The createentity command returns the identifier of the entity that is created.

The required syntax for the createentity command depends on the data source type you choose for the entity. The command syntax is different if you are connecting to data in a Trillium file as compared to connecting to data that uses a COBOL copybook file.

The command supports both flat file sources and relational database sources. Refer to the Overview section, for more information about supported data source types.
