ESQL-LIB Reference Entries

The following reference entries describe all normalized functions with the phrase “returns normalized values.” The return values for exceptional functions are described explicitly.

To check the value of SQLCODE or SQLSTATE for a particular ESQL-LIB function, you must bind SQLCODE or SQLSTATE using sqlcdbind() immediately prior to calling that function. Binding SQLCODE or SQLSTATE with sqlcdbind() remains in effect only for the following ESQL-LIB function call.

NOTE: All ESQL-LIB functions return control to your ESQL application, and none intentionally cause image exit. If a fatal Progress error does occur, your application obtains control, and ESQL-LIB accepts no further calls to functions except sqlgetmsg().
