Yes -- I had these problems too and they were really irritating. Don't tell my
Unix and Sybase technical support but I altered the "sybfrs.h" in my
/usr/local/sybase directory (we use Unix).
This header file declares its dblib procedures, like the ones you've called
above, like:
extern RETCODE fscallform();
I think you can get away with this type of loose C procedure declarations in C
but not with C++. You need that procedure declaration to look like:
extern RETCODE fscallform( FORM * );
so that your C++ knows that a variable of type FORM * is going to be passed.
Here are some more of the proc declarations you'll need:
Quote:> for fsopenscreen(int *, char *[], char *)
> for fsdbrec(LOGINREC *)
> for fsdbenviron(DBPROCESS *)
> for fsgetform(char *, char *)
> for fsabort(char *)
> for fsinstallproc(FSPROCEDURE [])
> for fsprocargs(char *, POINTER * )
> for fscallform(FORM *)
I know this list isn't complete for your needs. I just found what was supposed to
be in these declarations from the
"Sybase APT-Library/C Reference Manual"
so you can look up the rest. Good Luck!
