* README file for CLI Samples
* DB2 Universal Database for Windows 32-bit operating systems
*
* Last update : November, 1999
*
* These programming examples are for the "C" programming language, and can be
* found in the "sqllib/samples/cli" directory of the database instance. Copy
* these files to your working directory prior to building the sample programs.
*
* WARNING: Some of these samples may change your database or database manager
* configuration. Execute the samples against a 'test' database only,
* such as the DB2 SAMPLE database.
*
**********************************************************************
* QUICKSTART
*
* 1) Copy /sqllib/samples/cli/* to a working directory
* 2) Modify the makefile to reflect your environment:
* o set UID
* o set PWD
* o set DB
* 4) Excute 'make all' from the working directory
*
**********************************************************************
*
* For more information on programming in CLI see the:
* o "Building CLI Applications" section of the Application Building Guide
* o CLI Guide and Reference.
* o the CLI makefile
*
* For more information on the SQL language see the SQL Reference.
*
* For the latest information on programming, compiling, and running DB2
* applications, refer to the DB2 application development website at
* http:// www.software.ibm.com/data/db2/udb/ad

dtlob.c - How to read and write LOB data.
dtudt.c - How to create, use, and drop user defined distinct types.
***************************************************************************
*UDF Level (programs that demonstrate user defined functions).
*
udfcli.c - Client application which calls the user defined function
in udfsrv.c
udfsrv.c - User defined function ScalarUDF called by udfcli.c sample.
***************************************************************************
*Stored Procedure Level - Samples that demonstrate stored procedures in CLI.
*
spcreate.db2 - CLP script to issue CREATE PROCEDURE statements
spdrop.db2 - CLP script to drop stored procedures from the catalog
spclient.c - Client application that calls all of the stored procedures.
spserver.c - Stored procedure functions built and run on the server
To build the spserver DLL:
1. To allow unloading DLLs while developing stored
procedures, enter: "db2 update dbm cfg using KEEPDARI no".
2. For Microsoft Visual C++, enter either "bldmsrv spserver" or
"nmake spserver". For VisualAge C++, enter either "bldvsrv
spserver" or "nmake spserver".
3. Enter: "db2 connect to sample".
4. If the stored procedures were previously cataloged
for a different language, uncatalog them by entering:
"db2 -td@ -vf spdrop.db2".
5. Catalog the stored procedures by entering:
"db2 -td@ -vf spcreate.db2".
