Any idea to call C, C++ programs from DI Jobs or Data flows

[Former Member]

Hi,

One customer needs to call C, C++ programs from DI jobs.

I think, calling and kicking a web service to run from DI that ultimately kicks C, C++ programs can be one way to solve this.

Any other ideas ?

Rahul.

Depends on the requirement.

exec() function would be one option.

embedding the function into the database as a stored procedure DI then calls

Webservices, JMS is another solution

None of the above is a good one. What is the C++ function actually doing??

Thanks Werner.

>> What is the C++ function actually doing??

This was a general question asked by the customer, so dont have a specific answer to your question.

I will feedback to you on confirming this.

For me, web service and exec() function seems to be a good solution. But need to discuss with the customer on what's their actual requirement and environment constraints.

Thanks, once again.

regards,

Rahul.
