Chapter 1 Introduction

1.1 Overview

A SourcePro DB installation consists of the DB Interface Module and one or more DB Access Modules. Each DB Access Module provides access to a specific database API; this architecture is explained in detail in the DB Interface Module User's Guide.

This Access Module provides access to the DB2 Call Level Interface (CLI).

This manual assumes that you have installed your client database software and established a successful database connection. For more information, see Section 1.3.3, “Database Connectivity,” in the DB Interface Module User’s Guide, and the manual Installing and Building Your SourcePro C++ Products.
