Record data

The rest of the record is used for the record data. The record data contains different fields depending on the record type In previous versions, this record data was limited to 2080 bytes. When CRASTRS contains a record with the key “000000000000000000000” (twenty-one zeros). This limit no longer applies.

RAM, action, and return type
  1. The name of the CAF object this record corresponds to. (Previously limited to 16 bytes.)
  2. A description of the CAF object this record corresponds to. (Previously limited to 1024 bytes.)
Parameter
  1. The name of the parameter this record corresponds to. (Previously limited to 16 bytes.)
  2. The default value of the parameter this record corresponds to. (Previously limited to 16 bytes.)
  3. The prompt the client should display when requesting a value for the parameter this record corresponds to. (Previously limited to 1024 bytes.)
  4. A description of the parameter this record corresponds to. (Previously limited to 1024 bytes.)
Field
  1. The name corresponding to this metadata. To use this localized name as the Metadata Key, leave the Metadata Key blank in CRADEF. Leaving this blank will cause the name to be the Metadata Key defined in CRADEF. (Previously limited to 128 bytes.)
  2. The default value to display if no value is provided by the RAM for a given member for the Metadata Key. (Previously limited to 256 bytes.)
  3. A description of the metadata shown in this field. (Previously limited to 1024 bytes.)

All information in the data section should be in the locale and code page specified in the key. The following table summarizes the CRASTRS data formats for each of the CAF object types.

Table 1. CRASTRS data formats for each CAF object type. (The "Type" column lists the abbreviated type characters instead of the full type names.) Note that the disabled action type has not been included in this table because CRASTRS should not have any records for disabled actions.
