The GENERIC field property creates a generic field property.
You specify generic field properties only if you have made
changes to the field type (CDD$DATA_ELEMENT) supplied by Oracle

You can specify the NOGENERIC keyword to remove a generic field
property only if the changes you have made to CDD$DATA_ELEMENT
indicate that this property is optional.

cont> NOGENERIC MY_ATTRIBUTE.
In this example, the NOGENERIC keyword in the CHANGE FIELD
command removes the MY_ATTRIBUTE generic field property from
the TEST_FIELD field element.
