Setting Up Your Development Environment in C/C++ : Connecting to Your Data Source
 

Connecting to Your Data Source

Once you have configured an OpenAccess SDK service with a data source entry for your IP, a client can connect to it and select the data source you configured for your IP. Assume you created a data source named yourip under the OpenAccessSDK810_C_SQL service. You are now ready to use any of the OpenAccess SDK clients to connect to this data source service and issue SQL commands.
To connect from a client in a client/server configuration, you specify the data source name and the host and port number the OpenAccess SDK service is running on. In the local configuration, you specify the service name and the data source name.
The Interactive SQL tools can be used to execute SQL commands for testing and for setting up the schema.
For detailed information about testing using the OpenAccess SDK Clients, refer to the OpenAccess SDK Installation Guide.
