OTL 4.0, Example 550 (Sybase SQL Server and IMAGE column)

This example demonstrates simple INSERT and SELECT with Sybase SQL Server and IMAGE columns.

Source Code

#include <iostream>
using namespace std;

#include <stdio.h>
#define OTL_ODBC_UNIX // Compile OTL 4.0/ODBC
#include <otlv4.h> // include the OTL 4.0 header file

otl_connect db; // connect object

void insert(void)
// insert rows into table
{

otl_long_string f2(7000); // define long string variable
db.set_max_long_size(7000); // set maximum long string size for connect object

otl_stream o(1, // buffer size needs to be set to 1 for long strings
"insert into test_tab values(:f1<int>,:f2<raw_long>)",
// SQL statement
db // connect object
);


for(int i=1;i<=20;++i){
for(int j=0;j<5000;++j)
f2[j]='*';
f2[5000]='?';
f2.set_len(5001);
o<<i<<f2;
}
}

void select(void)
{
otl_long_string f2(7000); // define long string variable
db.set_max_long_size(7000); // set maximum long string size for connect object

otl_stream i(1, // buffer size needs to be set to 1
"select * from test_tab where f1>=:f11<int> and f1<=:f12<int>*2",
// SELECT statement
db // connect object
);
// create select stream

int f1;

i<<8<<8; // assigning :f11 = 8, :f12 = 8
// SELECT automatically executes when all input variables are
// assigned. First portion of out rows is fetched to the buffer

while(!i.eof()){ // while not end-of-data
i>>f1>>f2;
cout<<"f1="<<f1<<", f2="<<f2[0]<<f2[f2.len()-1]<<", len="<<f2.len()<<endl;
}

i<<4<<4; // assigning :1 = 4, :2 = 4
// SELECT automatically re-executes when all input variables are
// assigned. First portion of out rows is fetched to the buffer

while(!i.eof()){ // while not end-of-data
i>>f1>>f2;
cout<<"f1="<<f1<<", f2="<<f2[0]<<f2[f2.len()-1]<<", len="<<f2.len()<<endl;
}

}
int main()
{
otl_connect::otl_initialize(); // initialize ODBC environment
try{

db.rlogon("scott/tigger@freetds_sybsql"); // connect to ODBC
// It's recommended to use auto_commit_off() when OTL is used
// with FreeTDS/ODBC against Sybase in order to set the DB
// session's auto-commit to OFF. otl_connect::rlogon()'s auto-commit
// parameter has not effect. auto_commit_off() is a workaround, until
// a fix becomes available.
db.auto_commit_off();

otl_cursor::direct_exec
(
db,
"drop table test_tab",
otl_exception::disabled // disable OTL exceptions
); // drop table

otl_cursor::direct_exec
(
db,
"create table test_tab(f1 int, f2 image)"
); // create table

insert(); // insert records into table
select(); // select records from table

}

catch(otl_exception& p){ // intercept OTL exceptions
cerr<<p.msg<<endl; // print out error message
cerr<<p.stm_text<<endl; // print out SQL that caused the error
cerr<<p.sqlstate<<endl; // print out SQLSTATE message
cerr<<p.var_info<<endl; // print out the variable that caused the error
}

db.logoff(); // disconnect from ODBC

return 0;

}

Output

f1=8, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=9, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=10, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=11, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=12, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=13, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=14, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=15, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=16, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=4, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=5, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=6, f2=*?, len=5001
f1=7, f2=*?, len=5001
