ehLevel (level)

In which input files is this field used?
In headers of DBI files
What should the field look like?
In the usual files: fixed position
In the usual files (including w.dbi): fixed position
What does the field contain?
The level of a header line. This indicates the actual meaning of the header line.

We distinguish three levels of DBI headers:

  • h1. for information about a publication, e.g. AA = Anders And.
  • h2. for information about a volume, e.g. AA1987 = Anders And, 1987.
  • h3. for information about a specific issue, e.g. AA1987-01.

In DBS files, headers of level 1 and 2 (and 3) give global or more detailed information about a set of stories.

For internal use, we also have level = 0. But this should only be used in the file dbsnames.dbx.

Which checks are done?
No explicit checks. If not 1, 2, or 3 is specified, 1 is assumed.
Which CSV field(s) use this field?
How is the data used in the rest of INDUCKS?
The header level is used everywhere to distinguish between the various types of header lines.
