OTL 4.0, Example 274 (Simple Unicode Insert/Select and NVARCHAR2 strings)

Example 274 (Simple Unicode Insert/Select and NVARCHAR2 strings)

This example demonstrates a simple Unicode INSERT, SELECT and constant SQL statements.

Source Code

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

#include <stdio.h>
#define OTL_ODBC // Compile OTL 4.0/ODBC
#define OTL_UNICODE // Enable Unicode OTL for ODBC
#include <otlv4.h> // include the OTL 4.0 header file

otl_connect db; // connect object

void insert()
// insert rows into table

 otl_stream o(50, // buffer size
              "insert into test_tab values(:f1<int>,:f2<char[5]>)", 
                 // SQL statement, char[5] means 5 2-byte
// Unicode charatcters including a null
// terminator
              db // connect object
             );

 unsigned short tmp[32]; // Null terminated Unicode character array.

 for(int i=1;i<=100;++i){
  o<<i;
tmp[0]=1111; // Unicode character (decimal code of 1111)
tmp[1]=2222; // Unicode character (decimal code of 2222)

   // overloaded operator<<(const unsigned char*) in the case of Unicode
   // OTL accepts a pointer to a Unicode character array.
