When you write programs with embedded SQL, you have to run them through
the DB2 Precompiler, first. By convention, your source file would be
named 'test.sqC'. You'd then use the 'PREP' command:

db2 prep test.sqC bindfile

This produces the files 'test.C' and 'test.bnd'. You'd then use the
compiler to compile/link the test.C file, and the BIND command to add
the package to the database.

A word to the wise: Do *not* change the generated .C file after
executing the PREP command: The generated .C file is tied closely
to the corresponding .bnd file, and you'll create issues for yourself.
(Typically timestamp mismatch issues).



Good luck,
