To include an external file into your embedded SQL program, use:
EXEC SQL INCLUDE filename
;
The embedded SQL preprocessor will look for a file named
,
preprocess it, and include it in the resulting C output. Thus,
embedded SQL statements in the included file are handled correctly.
filename
.h
Note that this is not the same as
#include <filename
.h>
because this file would not be subject to SQL command preprocessing.
Naturally, you can continue to use the C
#include
directive to include other header
files.
The include file name is case-sensitive, even though the rest of
the EXEC SQL INCLUDE
command follows the normal
SQL case-sensitivity rules.
