<h1 class="topictitle1">Embed SQL statements in C and C++ applications that use
SQL</h1>
<div><p>SQL statements can be coded in a C or C++ program wherever executable
statements can appear.</p>
<p>Each SQL statement must begin with EXEC SQL and end with a semicolon (;).
The EXEC SQL keywords must be on one line. The remaining part of the SQL statement
can be on more than one line.</p>
<p><em>Example</em>: An UPDATE statement coded in a C or C++ program might be
coded in the following way: </p>
<pre> EXEC SQL
<strong>UPDATE</strong> DEPARTMENT
<strong>SET</strong> MGRNO = :MGR_NUM
<strong>WHERE</strong> DEPTNO = :INT_DEPT ;</pre>

<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpcommentsc.htm">Comments in C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
In addition to using SQL comments (--), you can include C comments (/*...*/) within embedded SQL statements whenever a blank is allowed, except between the keywords EXEC and SQL.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpcontinuationc.htm">Continuation for SQL statements in C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
SQL statements can be contained in one or more lines.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpincludecodec.htm">Include code in C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
You can include SQL statements, C, or C++ statements by embedding the following SQL statement in the source code.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpmarginsc.htm">Margins in C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
You must code SQL statements within the margins that are specified
by the MARGINS parameter on the <span class="cmdname">CRTSQLCI</span> or <span class="cmdname">CRTSQLCPPI</span> command.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpcnamco.htm">Names in C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
You can use any valid C or C++ variable name for a host variable. It is subject to the following restrictions:</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpnullsc.htm">NULLs and NULs in C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
C, C++, and SQL use the word null, but for different meanings.</li>

Executable SQL statements can be preceded with a label.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajppreprocessorc.htm">Preprocessor sequence for C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
You must run the SQL preprocessor before the C or C++ preprocessor. You cannot use C or C++ preprocessor directives within SQL statements.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajptrigraphsc.htm">Trigraphs in C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
Some characters from the C and C++ character set are not available
on all keyboards. You can enter these characters into a C or C++ source program
by using a sequence of three characters that is called a <em>trigraph</em>.</li>
<li class="ulchildlink"><strong><a href="rzajpwheneverc.htm">WHENEVER Statement in C and C++ applications that use SQL</a></strong><br />
