Running the SQL preprocessor
The SQL preprocessor is an executable named sqlpp.exe.
Command line
The SQLPP command line is as follows:
SQLPP [ switches ] sql-filename [ output-filename ]
The SQL preprocessor processes a C program with Embedded SQL before the C or C++ compiler is run. The preprocessor translates the SQL statements into C/C++ language source that is put into the output file. The normal extension for source programs with Embedded SQL is .sqc. The default output filename is the sql-filename with an extension of .c. If the sql-filename already has a .c extension, then the output filename extension is .cc by default.
For a full listing of the command-line switches, see The SQL preprocessor
