An OLE-DB DLL that you can use in ANSI-C

An OLE-DB DLL that you can use in ANSI-C

Introduction

I program with a ansi-c compile tools named Labwindows/CVI. My OS is Windows 2k advance server. Everyone know that ANSI-C can not use OLE-DB but the Win2k OS support it. So I think I can let the CVI support the OLE-DB through DLL file. And finally I succeeded and here is how.

Details

First Use Wizard Create a MFC DLL project. And then update the stdafx.h file.

 #define VC_EXTRALEAN    // Exclude rarely-used stuff

                          // from Windows headers

   #include <AFXWIN.H>         // MFC core and standard components

   #include <AFXEXT.H>         // MFC extensions

   #include <AFXCVIEW.H>

   #include <AFXDISP.H>        // MFC Automation classes

   #include <AFXDTCTL.H>    // MFC support for Internet Explorer 

                           // 4 Common Controls


   #import "c:\program files\common files\system\ado\msado15.dll" \
     no_namespace \
    rename ("EOF", "adoEOF")

The last statement can let the project support the ADO ole-db version 2. The class cTestCpp (sorry , I made a test name for this project) does the main work and the testDll.c does the interface work.

And the interface code.

// testDll.cpp : Defines the entry point for the DLL application.

//


#include "stdafx.h"

#include "testDll.h"

#include "cTestCpp.h"


int openConn(const char *connstr){
  return   test.openConn(connstr);
}
int CreateRst(void){
  return test.CreateRst();
}
int openRst(const char *sql){
  return test.openRst(sql);
}

int getCol(const char *colName,int dataType,char *result){
  return test.getCol(colName,dataType,result);
}  
int movenext(){
  return test.Movenext();
}
int movePrevious(){
  return test.MovePrevious();
}
int moveFirst(){
  return test.MoveFirst();
}
int moveLast(){
  return test.Movenext();
}
int GetCount(int *iResult){
  return test.GetCount(iResult);
}
BOOL IsEof(){
  return test.IsEof();
}
BOOL IsBof(){
  return test.IsBof();
}
int closeConn(){
  return test.CloseConn();
}
int closeRst(){
  return test.CloseRst();
}
int Execute(const char *sql, int *AffectedRecord){
  return test.Execute(sql,AffectedRecord);
}

In the interface code all parameter is the const char*, because the ansi code can not support CString class etc. At last, we update the testDll.def file to export the function.
