Clip/db-Bridge

Clip/db-Bridge is a programming library which allows Clipper Summer '87 and 5.x applications to access an Oracle® host locally on a PC or through Oracle's SQL*Net® product.  Up to two concurrent connections to two Oracle database, providing a maximum of 13 open cursors for both a default and remote connection are supported.  Full DDL and DML operations are supported for all Oracle commands, including the ability to pass PL/SQL blocks through cursors.
The programmer is provided with a seamless environment which allows Clipper variables to be initialized directly with data from Oracle.  The programmer can create SQL statements with data provided through embedded Clipper variables and Clip/db-Bridge will handle the conversion between Oracle and Clipper data transparently.  A built-in error handler is provided for easy debugging of SQL commands.

Benefits

  • Complete access to any Oracle database with the advantage of using Clipper and a wide range of supporting 3rd party libraries as a front-end development tool.
  • Maintain your existing Clipper code investment while switching over to Oracle as a host RDBMS.
  • Easy to learn and use with an excellent user manual to get you up and running in no time.
  • A mature and stable product to allow for unhindered development.

Features

  • All Oracle DDL and DML commands are supported
  • Up to two concurrent connections are supported (default and
    remote) with a maximum of 13 open cursors for DDL and DML operations
  • All Oracle and Clipper data types are supported, with automatic
    type conversions
  • Fetching into single dimensional arrays is supported, with
    a single fetch command filling the specified elements of an array
  • Alias mapping is provided to allow data from an Oracle column
    to be assigned to a Clipper variable with a different name
  • A built-in error handler is provided to catch SQL statement
    warnings and errors by displaying both the statement and error
    message on the screen. The error handler can be toggled on or
    off
  • A PL/SQL block can be passed through a cursor as a single
    character string and executed by any Oracle host supporting
    the PL/SQL language. This allows for the ability to have complex
    transactions executed completely at the Oracle host level, reducing
    host language interface overhead
