Application Programming Interfaces

OmniAccess API

The Omnidex Access Application Programming Interface (OmniAccess API), is the basis for all Omnidex application programming.

The Omnidex ODBC and JDBC drivers both use the OmniAccess API to communicate with Omnidex.

Omnidex applications that use the OmniAccess API can take advantage of all the features available with Omnidex, including the ability to use standard SQL for queries against any database.

OmniAccess syntax is based on SQL syntax, making it easy to understand and use.

OmniAccess API applications must:

• Connect to an Omnidex Environment (establish an instance)
• Open a Cursor

To terminate an OmniAccess API application, the application must:

• close all open cursors
• close all instances
