accessing database directly from Fortran code without using .Net classes

22 Oct 2006 5:54 #1163

In the latest version of Salford FTN95, can it access the database directly without using .Net classes such as ADO or System.Data.SqlCline.SqlConnection or third party functions like f90SQL. We are trying to move our legacy fortran application on VMS to the .Net environment. Our Fortran application has a lot of embedded sql and we would like to minimize the time it takes to port the system to .Net. In Cobol.Net, there is direct database access without using additional classes or third party functions. Does such a thing exist in Salford FTN95?

There is no direct support for SQL etc in FTN95 but you can use third party libraries such as f90SQL.

f90QSL will presumably use the STDCALL protocol but you will need to check the out and use the appropriate function prototypes in your header files.
