OTL 4.0, Example 554 (STL std::strings, ANSI C++ typecasts, Sybase SQL Server)

This example demonstrates OTL streams and std::strings. Also, the example shows how to turn on the ANSI C++ typecasts in OTL.

Source Code

#include <iostream>
#include <string>

#define OTL_ODBC_UNIX // Compile OTL 4.0/ODBC
#define OTL_STL // Turn on STL features
#define OTL_ANSI_CPP // Turn on ANSI C++ typecasts
#include <otlv4.h> // include the OTL 4.0 header file

using namespace std;

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[31]>)", 
                 // SQL statement
              db // connect object
             );
 string f2;

 for(int i=1;i<=100;++i){
  f2="NameXXX";
  o<<i<<f2;
 }
}

void select()
{ 
 otl_stream i(50, // buffer size
              "select * from test_tab where f1>=:f1<int> and f1<=:f11<int>*2",
                 // SELECT statement
              db // connect object
             ); 
   // create select stream
 
 float f1;
 string f2;

 i<<8<<8; // assigning :f1 = 8, :f11 = 8
   // SELECT automatically executes when all input variables are
   // assigned. First portion of output rows is fetched to the buffer

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

 i<<4<<4; // assigning :f1 = 4, :f11 = 4
   // SELECT automatically executes when all input variables are
   // assigned. First portion of output rows is fetched to the buffer

 while(!i.eof()){ // while not end-of-data
  i>>f1>>f2;
  cout<<"f1="<<f1<<", f2="<<f2<<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 varchar(30))"
    );  // 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.var_info<<endl; // print out the variable that caused the error
 }

 db.logoff(); // disconnect from ODBC

 return 0;

}

Output

f1=8, f2=NameXXX
f1=9, f2=NameXXX
f1=10, f2=NameXXX
f1=11, f2=NameXXX
f1=12, f2=NameXXX
f1=13, f2=NameXXX
f1=14, f2=NameXXX
f1=15, f2=NameXXX
f1=16, f2=NameXXX
f1=4, f2=NameXXX
f1=5, f2=NameXXX
f1=6, f2=NameXXX
f1=7, f2=NameXXX
f1=8, f2=NameXXX
