Re: Embedded SQL

Shoot from the hip answer is yes, the SQL product is 
required, and that it what we do.  The SQL product 
precompiles it and then passes it through the appropriate 
RPG compiler.  Basically it takes your embedded SQL and 
replaces it with calls to various API's and some other 
items.  There are people that code their SQL this way 
instead of buying the SQL product.  Frankly, I would think 
the maintainability would not be as nice.  The SQL precompiler 
has some irritations, such as it doesn't like embedded 
/COPY statements.  Irritations yes, but an excuse to not 
use it, no.

Hi,
To embed SQL into RPG, is the SQL lic pgm required?
Is there any place that has example code (RPGIII & IV)?
Thanks,
Matthias
