644 Using the SAS_PUT( ) Function in the Netezza Data Warehouse 4 Chapter 22Using the SAS_PUT( ) Function in the Netezza Data WarehouseImplicit Use of the SAS_PUT( ) FunctionAfter you install the formats that SAS supplies in libraries inside the Netezza datawarehouse and publish any custom format definitions that you created in SAS, you canaccess the SAS_PUT( ) function with your SQL queries.If the SQLMAPPUTTO= system option is set to SAS_PUT and you submit yourprogram from a SAS session, the SAS SQL processor maps PUT function calls toSAS_PUT( ) function references that Netezza understands.This example illustrates how the PUT function is mapped to the SAS_PUT( )function using implicit pass-through.options sqlmapputto=sas_put;%put &mapconn;libname dblib netezza &mapconn;/*-- Set SQL debug global options --*//*----------------------------------*/options sastrace=’,,,d’ sastraceloc=saslog;/*-- Execute SQL using Implicit Passthru --*//*-----------------------------------------*/proc sql noerrorstop;title1 ’Test SAS_PUT using Implicit Passthru ’;select distinctPUT(PRICE,Dollar8.2) AS PRICE_Cfrom dblib.mailorderdemo;quit;These lines are written to the SAS log.options sqlmapputto=sas_put;%put &mapconn;user=dbitext password=dbigrp1 server=spubox database=TESTDBsql_functions="EXTERNAL_APPEND=WORK.dbfuncext" sql_functions_copy=saslog;libname dblib netezza &mapconn;NOTE: Libref DBLIB was successfully assigned, as follows:Engine: NETEZZAPhysical Name: spubox/*-- Set SQL debug global options --*//*----------------------------------*/options sastrace=’,,,d’ sastraceloc=saslog;/*-- Execute SQL using Implicit Passthru --*//*-----------------------------------------*/
