NAME

Dbxlat, Dbxlatn - translate table between DB integer codes and string definitions

SYNOPSIS

#include    "db.h"
Xlat        Dbxlat[] ;
int 	    Dbxlatn ;

DESCRIPTION

Dbxlat is a static table of Dbxlatn Datascope constants -- like dbRECORD_COUNT and dbPRIMARY_KEY -- for use with the routines xlatname(3) and xlatnum(3). They are particularly useful for building interfaces to Datascope routines from other languages such as perl(1), tcl/tk or matlab.

EXAMPLE

{
    char *string ;
    int code ;
    code = xlatname(string, Dbxlat, Dbxlatn);
	.
	.
	.
    dbquery ( db, code, &result ) ;
	.
	.
	.
    string = xlatnum ( result, Dbxlat, Dbxlatn ) ;
}
