7.4.1 Compiling Applications

Append the extension "pco" to the name of the source file for the embedded SQL in C.

When the pco file is precompiled using the ecobpg command, COBOL source files will be created, so use the COBOL compiler for the compile.

Precompiling example

ecobpg testproc.pco

Specify the following options when compiling a COBOL application output with precompiling.

Linux

Dynamic library	libecpg.so
Static library	libecpg.a

Windows(R)

If the include file and the library path have been set in the environment variable, there is no need to specify the options shown below for the compile.

Table 7.3 Include file and library path
