> This section explains how <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>ECPG</SPAN
> works
internally. This information can occasionally be useful to help
users understand how to use <SPAN
CLASS="APPLICATION"
>ECPG</SPAN
>.
</P
><P
> The first four lines written by <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>ecpg</TT
> to the
output are fixed lines. Two are comments and two are include
lines necessary to interface to the library. Then the
preprocessor reads through the file and writes output. Normally
it just echoes everything to the output.
</P
><P
> When it sees an <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>EXEC SQL</TT
> statement, it
intervenes and changes it. The command starts with <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>EXEC
SQL</TT
> and ends with <TT
CLASS="COMMAND"
>;</TT
>. Everything in
between is treated as an <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>SQL</ACRONYM
> statement and
parsed for variable substitution.
</P
><P
> Variable substitution occurs when a symbol starts with a colon
(<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>:</TT
>). The variable with that name is looked up
among the variables that were previously declared within a
<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"
>EXEC SQL DECLARE</TT
> section.
</P
><P
> The most important function in the library is
<CODE
CLASS="FUNCTION"
>ECPGdo</CODE
>, which takes care of executing most
commands. It takes a variable number of arguments. This can easily
add up to 50 or so arguments, and we hope this will not be a
problem on any platform.
</P
><P
> The arguments are:
<P
></P

CLASS="VARIABLELIST"
><DL
><DT

><DD
><P

messages only.
</P

><DT
>A string</DT
><DD
><P
> This is the <ACRONYM
CLASS="ACRONYM"
>SQL</ACRONYM
> command that is to be issued.
It is modified by the input variables, i.e., the variables that
where not known at compile time but are to be entered in the
command. Where the variables should go the string contains
<TT
CLASS="LITERAL"

>.

instance, an open cursor statement like:

is not copied to the output. Instead, the cursor's

because it indeed opens the cursor.
