This command is reserved for specific needs. It must be used with care since it can affect database performance.

The SET TABLE CACHE PRIORITY command sets a specific priority to the data related to aTable in cache for all processes in the current session. This command should be called in the On Startup or On Server Startup database method.

Note: This command only works in local mode (4D Server and 4D); it cannot be used in 4D remote mode.

This command handles priority for data in scalar fields only (date, number, or string types). Priority for fields of binary type (Blobs, texts, pictures, and objects) is handled by the SET BLOBS CACHE PRIORITY command.

In the priority parameter, pass one of the following constants from the "Cache Management" theme:

Constant	Comment
Cache priority low
Cache priority very low
Cache priority normal	Sets the cache priority to its default value
Cache priority high
Cache priority very high

Example

In the , you want to set a high priority for the [Customer] scalar data:

SET TABLE CACHE PRIORITY([Customer];Cache priority very high)
