Running the SQL/MX Compiler
On Windows, you can run the C/C++ compiler and native object file linker from ETK, or
you can use the command-line cross compiler c89 and the linker (eld or nld). For
details on syntax and using the C/C++ cross compiler with ETK, see the help file Using
Command-Line Cross Compilers on Windows, which is included with ETK.
To run the C/C++ compilers, see the C/C++ Programmer’s Guide. To run the eld
linker, see the eld Manual. To run the nld linker, see the nld Manual. For more
information on the c89 utility, see c89 Utility: Using One Command for All Compilation
Steps on page 15-42, the OSS reference pages, or the Open System Services Shell
and Utilities Reference Manual.
Running the SQL/MX Compiler
The SQL/MX compiler compiles and optimizes static and dynamic SQL statements for
subsequent execution by the SQL/MX executor and performs these functions:

Expands SQL object names by using the current default settings

Expands view definitions

Performs type checking for C/C++ and SQL data types

Checks SQL object references to verify their existence

Determines an optimized execution plan and access path for each DML statement
if the SQL objects in the statement are present at compile time
