If .I Db4glgen finds the file $INFORMIXDIR/bin/fglpc, it will create a Makefile and an "fgiusr.c" file for use with Informix\\-4GL/RDS. .PP The following functions are in usr_funcs.c and can be used in the 4GL code genereated by .I Db4glgen. .PP fgl_prtscr() \\- This function will print the entire screen. fgl_getkey() \\- This function waits for a key to be hit and returns its value. .SH OPTIONS .TP .B \\-d database name .TP .B \\-t table name .TP .B \\-b create "browse" ring option using COL1 and COL2 .TP .B \\-c create code for color displays .TP .B \\-f force overwrite of existing files .TP .B \\-l create code for databases with transactions .TP program is the filename that will contain the source code .SH NOTES Makefile\\-4gi has a target for "newfgldb" (for people with the Debugger) .PP The "bform" generated by .I Db4glgen with the \\-b options will default COL1 to 10 characters and COL2 to 20 characters. Tweek as necessary. .PP Warning statements during compiling with Informix\\-4GL (not RDS) are caused by the "ON KEY" clauses in the ctrl_p() function. They can be ignored as they are just warnings. .PP fgl_getkey() is designed to be used with fgl_lastkey() and fgl_keyval(). .SH SUPPORT Bug reports can be mailed to Dave Snyder <dave@snide.com> Here --------- Snip Here --------- Snip Here --------- Snip Here --------- Snip DAS -- David Snyder @ Snide Computer Services - Folcroft, PA Current Release is db4glgen-3.9 UUCP: ..!uunet!das13!dave INTERNET: dave.snyder@snide.com
