Re: Oracle form 4.5 and C interface

Hi John:

You can use FFI (Foreign Function Interface).

1. You can write modules in C. Then, make them binded together to form a DLL.
2. You have to create a library/program unit in Oracle for the system interface. You can do this thorugh Form Runtime. They have a form namely demo. You can use this form to create library / program unit to call the DLL.
