- I recently downloaded a freeware program called SQLDB. It is an Alpha version
- of a SQL engine. It has an Arexx port you can send it commands from.
-
- My question is this. I would like to write a C program that used ARexx
- within it to call the SQL program ( and retrieve data from the database for
- use in my C program - basically, I want to use ARexx as an interface layer
- between my C program and the SQL program).
-
- Is there a way to integrate C and ARexx like this?
- I don't know much about ARexx, admittedly, and there isn't anything in my
- libraries manual on it (I guess you have to order some book seperately).
- If this is feasable, I'd appreciate a brief explanation on how to do it.
- (I'm using the Aztec compiler if it matters).
-
-
- Additionally, this freeware Alpha-version of SQL is the *only* SQL I have
- seen for the Amiga - is anyone aware of any others?
