SQL Preprocessor Support for C - Limitations for C++


The purpose of the SQL Preprocessor is to convert 3GL source
files with embedded SQL statements into corresponding 3GL files
with function calls to our ESQL-LIB interface. In V7, the only
supported 3GL is C (in V6, we supported COBOL, PASCAL and C).

In the C language, the current Preprocessors only supports the
standard C comment convention ("/* comment */") - it cannot
handle the newer C++ style comments ("//" with no terminator).
We believe this is the only C++ specific issue with the Preprocessor.

A bug has been submitted on this specific point. If you discover
any other C++ specific issues with the Preprocessor, please contact
Technical Support so that we may notify development.

Currently, a SQL Preprocessor specifically for C++ does not exist.
