I am using Ingres and have an application that would really benefit
from an SQL API approach, such as Sybase's DB-Library or Oracle's OCI.
Ingres seemingly doesn't support an API, and documentation for
the internal function library used by the pre-compiler output is not 
available. 

Has anyone had any success decrypting the pre-compiler output?

BTW, I realize that using the internal library is not something one should
normally be doing, and will probably change with new Ingres releases.

Please reply by mail.
