C API Samples

The eXtremeDB package you have installed contains dozens of C API samples demonstrating individual features. All of the necessary source code, tools and scripts are provided to make building and running these samples simple and easy. The build procedure will vary slightly depending on your development platform. Please follow the steps outlined below for your development environment. Then use the links for the desired group of samples from the table under Running SDK Samples to view explanations of the individual samples and instructions for running them.

Unix-Linux build procedure

For Unix-Linux packages, a makefile is provided in the installation root directory as well as in each sample sub-directory.

To build all samples simply run the make utility. For x64 packages it is necessary to indicate whether you are building with 64 or 32 bit system libraries. This is done by specifying x64=on or x64=off on the make command line. For example to build all samples with 64 bit system libraries, use the following command:

 
    make x64=on
 

(For source code packages, if it is necessary to rebuild the eXtremeDB libraries, the build procedure is described here .)

Windows build procedure

Windows packages are built for the specific version of Visual Studio requested in the purchase order. Solution files are provided in the installation root directory, and individual project files are provided in each sample directory according to the components of your package. The solution file can be opened directly in Visual Studio to build the individual sample projects or "Batch build" the entire group of projects.

The following solution files are provided according to the components of your package:

All Packages
samples-core.sln	Solution file for C and C++ sample applications
samples.dotnet.sln	Solution file for .NET Framework (C#) sample applications
With eXtremeSQL
samples-sql.sln	Solution file for embedded SQL sample applications
With Cluster
samples-cluster.sln	Solution file for C and C++ Cluster sample applications
With High Availability
samples-ha.sln	Solution file for C and C++ High Availability sample applications
With Transaction Logging
samples-log.sln	Solution file for C and C++ Transaction Logging sample applications

 

Alternatively, a make.bat command file is provided that can be run in a console window. Please see here for these special build details.

Integrity OS build procedure

The eXtremeDB packages for Integrity provide host-side utilities for both Linux and Windows operating systems. The packages include pre-generated schema files for all SDK samples. In order to re-generate the SDK samples implementation files, use the compile-schema.sh file located in the /samples directory. (To build the eXtremeDB runtime libraries, please follow the steps outlined here.)

VxWorks build procedure

The eXtremeDB packages for VxWorks provide host-side utilities for both Linux and Windows operating systems. To build and run VxWorks samples, please follow the steps outlined here. (To build the eXtremeDB runtime libraries, please follow the steps outlined here.)
