esqlf Command—Invoke Embedded SQL Preprocessor for Fortran

The esqlf command invokes the Ingres embedded SQL (ESQL) preprocessor for Fortran.

The esqlf command has the following format:

esqlf [flags] [filename]

• flags

  Specify options to the preprocessor.

  These flags are common to most host language preprocessors, and are described under the esqlc command.

  The following flags are unique to the preprocessor for Fortran:

  • -iN

    Sets the default size of integers to N bytes. N must be either 2 or 4. The default is 4.

    On UNIX, if N=2 is used, the -i2 flag must be specified.

    On VMS, if N=2 is used, the noi4 qualifier must be used.

• filename

  Specifies the name of the file that contains the embedded SQL statements.

For a complete description of the SQL preprocessor requirements for Fortran, see the Embedded SQL Companion Guide.
