ESQL/C: Error -33020: Line is too long.
Hi, I am getting " Error -33020: Line is too long. " when preprocessing ec file. finderr says: Refer to the embedded-language manual and to the host-language manual for rules on continuing long lines. I cannot find reference to that in my V5 PGMR manual. Are there any optinal command line switches I could use? thanks, sunil + esql -V INFORMIX-ESQL Version 5.08.UD1 SunOS 5.5.1
How long is the line? I've seen similar (not precicely, but similar) errors occur if I forget to close a comment, so you might want to check that.

IMS the line limit for ESQL/C 5.xx was 32K. Why not just break the line up or build the command as a string and prepare it? Don't be stubborn, be lazy. Good programmers are lazy and should be. This is a perfect example. It is easier to break the long line up than to search the manuals, the web, and this newsgroup for a compiler switch that will permit you to leave it long! Be lazy. Art S.

Basically, I agree with you, Art, unless there are circumstances beyond his control that cause the ESQL/C to be so long. For example, he might be using a code generator that creates the ESQL/C source file. > "Bhaskarla, Sunil" wrote: > > I am getting " Error -33020: Line is too long.
