Possibilities that come immediately to mind include ACCELL/SQL for Oracle
from Unify (Sacramento), JAM with JAMdbi from JYACC (NYC), Uniface (just
getting started here - based in the SF East Bay), and there are a few other
toolkits.  If you want to add some intelligence, you might look at Nexpert
Object from Neuron Data (Palo Alto), since their front end toolkit is quite
nice.

Why should it generate C code?
