1  –  TRANSACTION_HANDLE

    A keyword followed by a host language variable. A transaction
    handle identifies each instance of a transaction. If you do not
    declare the transaction handle explicitly, Oracle Rdb attaches an
    internal identifier to the transaction.

    If you start a transaction with a transaction handle, you must
    include that handle in the START_SEGMENTED_STRING statement,
    otherwise you get the following error:

    RDB-E-EXCESS_TRANS, exceeded limit of !UL transactions !%S per
    database attachment

    In Callable RDO, use !VAL as a marker for host language
    variables.

    You can put parentheses around the host language variable name.

    Normally, you do not need to use this argument. The ability to
    declare a transaction handle is provided for compatibility with
    other database products and future releases of Oracle Rdb.

2  –  ss-handle

    A host language variable or name used to refer to the segmented
    string.

3  –  on-error

    The ON ERROR clause, which specifies host language statements or
    Oracle Rdb data manipulation statements to be performed if an Oracle Rdb
    error occurs. For more information, request HELP on ON_ERROR.

4  –  context-var

    A valid context variable. You use this context variable to
    qualify the segments in the data manipulation statements that
    follow.

5  –  ss-field

    A qualified field name that refers to a field defined with the
    segmented string data type. Note that this field name must
    be qualified by its own context variable. This second context
    variable must match the variable declared in the START_STREAM
    statement.
