Database Systems
CorrectAddress® can be utilized from almost any database environment.
If you do not see your programming environment listed below please contact our
technical support to find out how CorrectAddress® can work for
you.
SQL
Server 2000/2005
CorrectAddress® seamlessly integrates
with SQL Server 2000 and 2005. All operations are performed
within SQL Server without the need to move data in or out of
the database. Two approaches
are supported – extended stored procedures(ESP) and CLR
integration (SQL Server 2005 only). For the ESP approach all
you need to do is install the CorrectAddress® SQL Server
dynamic link library on the server (usually by simply placing
it in
the Binn directory) and
run a small script to register the extended stored procedures.
For the CLR integration the assembly references are added to
the project.
Easy-to-use APIs are available for T-SQL, C# and VB.NET. The
architecture as well as the APIs are open and portable allowing
greater flexibility in the implementation. Both real-time and
batch scenarios are supported.
Oracle
CorrectAddress® can be easily integrated
into Oracle applications. Included in the CorrectAddress® software
package is an SDK, containing a collection of PL/SQL examples
that illustrate its integration into Oracle environment.
Oracle provides capabilities of calling external functions from PL/SQL
scripts. This is accomplished through the creation of extended stored procedures
that
reference the dynamically executable function code. An external procedure
is a third-generation-language routine stored in a dynamic link library,
registered
with PL/SQL, and invoked to do special-purpose processing. CorrectAddress® comes
with such a library (shared object on UNIX platforms).
At run time, PL/SQL loads the library dynamically, and then calls the routine
as if it were a PL/SQL subprogram. To safeguard your database, the routine
runs in a separate address space.
DB2
CorrectAddress® comes with a DB2 SDK,
that includes a specialized library and examples of calling
CorrectAddress® functions
from DB2 environment.
CorrectAddress® functions can be interfaced via DB2 stored
procedures. A stored procedure is a wrapper routine that references
a function stored in a dynamic
link library, registered with DB2 and called to do special-purpose processing.
CorrectAddress® routines can be accessed via its specialized shared
library. At run time, DB2 SQL loads the library dynamically, and then calls
the routine
as if it were a subprogram.
