RE: Embedded SQL - SQLC

Phil,

Afraid I'm not going to be much help as I've never used imbedded SQL
out of C.  Perhaps somebody else can jump in?

Does it work if you don't make hostDS an array?

What is the EXACT text of the message you are getting?  Include the
second level text please.  Also, are you getting it at compile or run
time?

Bob

Bob,

I've tried a few things.  Here are two versions based on the example in
the
Host Programming Languages manual, one using an external description
(which
I'm not sure is supported) and one where the struct is defined in the
pgm.
The DDS is at the bottom (no null-capable fields).  I am trying to
select a
number of records and have them inserted into a struct, the way in
SQLRPG
you can select many records and have them inserted into a MODS.

I truely appreciate your help!!

Phil

#pragma mapinc("EMPLOYEE","*LIBL/EMPLOYEE(*all)","both","d",," ")
#include "EMPLOYEE"

 SAMPLER_both_t          hostDS[10];

 EXEC SQL include SQLCA;

main()
{

     EXEC SQL
       declare CURSOR cursor for
         select firstname, midinit, lastname, salary, bonus, comm
         from EMPLOYEE;

     EXEC SQL
       open CURSOR;

     EXEC SQL
       fetch from CURSOR into :hostDS;

   }

Here's another which is out of the Host Programming manual on pg 26 &
27:

  typedef _Packed struct {
    char FIRSTINIT;
    char MIDINIT;
    _Packed struct{
       short LASTNAME_LEN;
       char LASTNAME_DATA[15];
       } LASTNAME;
    float SALARY;
    float BONUS;
    float COMM;
 } empDS;

 empDS hostDS[10];

 EXEC SQL include SQLCA;

main()
{

     EXEC SQL
       declare CURSOR cursor for
         select substr(firstname,1,1), midinit, lastname, salary,
bonus,
comm
         from EMPLOYEE;

     EXEC SQL
       open CURSOR;

     EXEC SQL
       fetch from CURSOR into :hostDS;

   }

DDS for EMPLOYEE:

     A                                      UNIQUE
     A          R SAMPLER
     A            FIRSTNAME     10
     A            MIDINIT        1
     A            LASTNAME      15
     A            SALARY         7F
     A            BONUS          7F
     A            COMM           7F
     A          K LASTNAME
