I am working on an application that requires me to use an external application to pull data from a odbc proxy. One issue that I have run into is trying to figure out how to pass data from my application to the externally called application.
To give an example when running the external application from the command line. I would use something like this
dbtcp DSN=mysource localhost
Output from this would be something like this.
Connected to DSN=mysource
Use CTRL-D to exit
dbtcp>
dbtcp> (this is where I would need to pass my arguments to.)
I do know there are better ways to handle odbc connections, but due to the way the windows application I am trying pull data from is written it has to be done with an external application.
Any help with this is greatly appreciated.
