Overview -- /Oracle
Oracle server
This was written during August and September 1992 by Arthur Secret.
The server takes a W3 query as an SQL SELECT staement and returns
the results formatted as a table in plain text.
This server is obviously a good sarting point for a gateway to provide
a hypertext view of an oracle database.
Sources
The normal daemon files from the basic W3 daemon and library are used,
and also:
- Makefile
- The clue to how it is built, with lists of W3 and oracle libraries.
(Not all the Oracle libraries mentioned are necessarily used).
- HTOracle.pc
- Is put through the Oracle preprocessor Pro*C. This is the
guts of the gateway.
- HTOracle.h
- Header file for HTOracle.pc
- HTRetrieve.c
- This is modified from the regular version to call HTOracle.pc
- y.pc
- This is a test program which runs on the terminal
