Oracle server

This was written during August and September 1992 by Arthur Secret.

The server takes a W3 query as an SQL SELECT staement and returns the results formatted as a table in plain text.

This server is obviously a good sarting point for a gateway to provide a hypertext view of an oracle database.

Sources

The normal daemon files from the basic W3 daemon and library are used, and also:

Makefile

The clue to how it is built, with lists of W3 and oracle libraries. (Not all the Oracle libraries mentioned are necessarily used).

HTOracle.pc

Is put through the Oracle preprocessor Pro*C. This is the guts of the gateway.

HTOracle.h

Header file for HTOracle.pc

HTRetrieve.c

This is modified from the regular version to call HTOracle.pc

y.pc

This is a test program which runs on the terminal
