Example 1: Add a STANDARD database alias to the configuration file.

This example uses the following input:

 fDbiAddAlias1('TestAlias', 'PATH:C:\BDE32\EXAMPLES\TABLES');

 

procedure fDbiAddAlias1(AliasName, AliasPath: string);

begin

 Check(DbiAddAlias(nil, PChar(AliasName), nil, PChar(AliasPath), True));

end;

Example 2: Add an InterBase database alias to the configuration file.

This example uses the following input:

fDbiAddAlias2('RemoteAlias', 'PATH:frobosrv:d:/interbas;' +

           'SERVER NAME:frobosrv:d:/interbas/slim.gdb;' +

           'USER NAME:test;' +

           'SQLQRYMODE:SERVER;' +

           'SQLPASSTHRU MODE:SHARED NOAUTOCOMMIT');

Note: The last parameter in the string does not have a semicolon ( ; ) at the end.

procedure fDbiAddAlias2(AliasName, AliasPath: string);

begin

 Check(DbiAddAlias(nil, PChar(AliasName), 'INTRBASE', PChar(AliasPath), True));

end;
