Description
This functions copies the underlying table to a new table on
disk. The
select function
only returns a reference to
the selected portion of the data set (no copy is made). This
function can be used to make a copy of that selected portion
of the data set. An sditerator
tool will then need to be
constructed using this new data set.
Example
# sdit is an already existing data set
sdit.deepcopy("newCopy");
copyOfSdit := sditerator("newCopy");
