Define

Define() establishes specific data definitions. This involves defining columns/fields and creating the tables/files with optional indexes.

Below is the code for Define():

/*

* Define()

*

* Create the table for containing a list of existing customers

*/

void Define(void)

{

CTSQLRET rc;

printf("DEFINE\n");

ctsqlExecuteDirect(hCmd, "DROP TABLE ordritem");

ctsqlExecuteDirect(hCmd, "DROP TABLE custordr");

ctsqlExecuteDirect(hCmd, "DROP TABLE custmast");

ctsqlExecuteDirect(hCmd, "DROP TABLE itemmast");

/* create table */

printf("\tCreate table...\n");

if ((rc = ctsqlExecuteDirect(hCmd,

"CREATE TABLE custmast ( \

cm_custnumb CHAR(4), \

cm_custzipc CHAR(9), \

cm_custstat CHAR(2), \

cm_custrtng CHAR(1), \

cm_custname VARCHAR(47), \

cm_custaddr VARCHAR(47), \

cm_custcity VARCHAR(47))"

)) != CTSQLRET_OK)

Handle_Error("ctsqlExecuteDirect(CREATE TABLE)");

}
