Using the Embedded SQL Guide

From InterBase

Go Up to Embedded SQL Guide


The InterBase Embedded SQL Guide is a task-oriented explanation of how to write, preprocess, compile, and link embedded SQL and DSQL database applications using InterBase and a host programming language, either C or C++. This chapter describes who should read this book, and provides a brief overview of its chapters.

Who Should Use the Embedded SQL Guide

The InterBase Embedded SQL Guide is intended for database applications programmers. It assumes a general knowledge of:

  • SQL
  • Relational database programming
  • C programming

The Embedded SQL Guide assumes little or no previous experience with InterBase. See the Operations Guide for an introduction to InterBase and the Language Reference Guide for an introduction to SQL.

Note:
The Embedded SQL Guide focuses on embedded SQL and DSQL programming in C or C++. It does not address Delphi-specific topics.
