RE: A question about SPPI

Man Li,

The UNIQUENESS clause itself is optional. The SPPI does
not put any constraints on which attributes can be specified
in this clause other than - 
1.  The attribute named in the PIB-INDEX clause may not be 
    present in the UNIQUENESS clause.  
2. An attribute may not appear more than once in a UNIQUENESS 
   clause. 

So, yes, the UNIQUNESS clause can contain optional attributes
as long as it follows the rules above.

Hope that helps,
Ravi

In a PIB table, some attributes can be optional. Should the UNIQUENESS
clause exclude optional attributes? In other words, can a UNIQUENESS clause
contain any optional attributes?
