OTL 4.0, Example 728 (MERGE statement, MS SQL)

This example demonstrates simple INSERT/MERGE/SELECT with MS SQL.

Source Code

#include <iostream>
#include <stdio.h>
using namespace std;

#define OTL_ODBC_MSSQL_2008 // Compile OTL 4.0/MS SQL SNAC
#include <otlv4.h> // include the OTL 4.0 header file

otl_connect db; // connect object

void insert(void)
// insert rows into table

 otl_stream o(10, // stream buffer size in logical rows.
"insert into test_tab "
"values(:f1<int>,:f2<char[31]>)",
                 // INSERT statement
              db // connect object
             );
o<<1<<"Line1";
o<<2<<"Line21";
o.flush();
}

void merge(void)
// merge rows into table

 otl_stream o(10, // stream buffer size in logical rows.
"merge into test_tab as d "
"using (select cast(:f1<int> as int) f1, "
" cast(:f2<char[31]> as varchar(30)) f2) s "
"on (s.f1=d.f1) "
"when matched then update set f2=s.f2+'--'+convert(varchar,s.f1) "
"when not matched then insert (f1,f2) values(s.f1,s.f2);",
                 // MERGE statement
              db // connect object
             );
o<<2<<"Line22";
o<<3<<"Line3";
o.flush();
}

void select(void)

 otl_stream i(5, // stream buffer size in logical rows
              "select * from test_tab ",
                 // SELECT statement
              db // connect object
             ); 
// SELECT output columns
 int f1;
 char f2[31];

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

int main()
{
 otl_connect::otl_initialize(); // initialize DB API environment
 try{

  db.rlogon("scott/tiger@mssql2008"); // connect to the database

  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 varchar(30))"
    );  // create table

db<<"create unique index ind001 on test_tab(f1)";
// create unique index

  insert(); // insert records into table
merge(); // merge 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 the database

 return 0;

}

Output
f1=1, f2=Line1
f1=2, f2=Line22--2
f1=3, f2=Line3
