Effect of Disabling configuration Key on tables

You can disable a regular persisted database table by disabling the configuration key that controls the table. Disabling the key causes the system to automatically create a TempDB style of temporary table that matches the fields and schema of the database table. This temporary table exists in the underlying SQL Server database and is managed by the Application Object Server (AOS).

The purpose of automatically creating this TempDB table is to enable AOT objects that reference the disabled table to continue to compile and run. You can read and write to this TempDB table even though the configuration key is disabled.

All table buffer variables inherit the methods of the xRecord class. One such method is setTmp, which creates an InMemory temporary table that has the same schema as the regular table. However, the setTmp method cannot create an InMemory table from a TempDB table. You can call the method isTempDb to determine whether the setTmp method is available.
