Progress Embedded Structured Query Language (ESQL) allows you to write C applications that access Progress through a standards-based ESQL interface. This interface consists of two major components:

Starting with a minimum set of session management functions from ESQL-LIB, you can code your ESQL application using either Progress/ESQL, ESQL-LIB, or both, depending on the type of ESQL you are using.
