The following programs demonstrate how to specify a COMPILETIME
and RUNTIME database as the same database. Because a RUNTIME
database is not explicitly declared, the programs use the
COMPILETIME database at runtime also.
1 – C Example
#include <stdio.h>
DATABASE PERS = FILENAME "PERSONNEL";
main ()
{
READY PERS;
START_TRANSACTION READ_ONLY;
/* perform some action on the database */
COMMIT;
FINISH;
}
2 – Pascal Example
program db (input,output);
DATABASE PERS = FILENAME 'PERSONNEL';
begin
READY PERS;
START_TRANSACTION READ_ONLY;
(* perform some actions on the database *)
COMMIT;
FINISH;
end.
