Define

The Define() step is where specific data definitions are established by your application and/or process. This involves defining columns/fields and creating the tables/files with optional indices.

Below is the code for Define():

/*

 * Define()

 *

 * Create the table for containing a list of existing customers

 */

void Define(void)

{

   RETCODE  rc;

   printf("DEFINE\n");

   /* create table */

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

   if ((rc = SQLExecDirect(hStmt,

      "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))",

      SQL_NTS)) != SQL_SUCCESS)

      Handle_Error(SQL_HANDLE_STMT, hStmt, "SQLExecDirect(CREATE TABLE)");
