The sample programs demonstrate specific Client-Library/C functionality. These programs are designed as guides for application programmers, not as Client-Library/C training aids. Read the descriptions at the top of each source file and examine the source code before attempting to use the sample programs.
These sample programs are not intended for use in a
production environment. Programs written for a production environment
require additional code to handle errors and special cases.
Before you use the Open Client sample programs:
Set the SYBASE environment variable to the path of the Sybase release directory (if it has not already been set).
Set the SYBASE_OCS environment variable to the home directory of Open Client and Open Server products. For example, OCS-15_0 is the home directory of 15.5 version of the Open Client and Open Server products.
Set the DSQUERY environment variable to the server name (server_name) to which you want to connect.
Use make with the provided makefile to produce a sample executable named example_name.
For detailed information regarding configuration of your environment and variables, see the Open Client and Open Server Configuration Guide for Microsoft Windows.
