constant type was entered explicitly or N (no) to indicate the constant type was

DICTDDF Fields
DICTDDF (Dictionary Definition File) contains a single record, updated every time
DDL adds a new object to the dictionary. DICTDDF should not be an audited file.
An explanation of each field follows:
•
NEXT-OBJ
−
the object number that DDL assigns to the next record or definition
added to the dictionary, or that the Pathmaker product assigns to the next service,
server, requester, or screen added to the dictionary.
•
NEXT-TEXT-ID
−
the text ID number that DDL or the Pathmaker product assigns to
the next text item stored in DICTOTF (refer to DICTOTF fields for a description of
the kinds of text items stored in the dictionary).
•
VERSION
−
a version number that is incremented every time the internal structure
of the dictionary changes.
