Overview of the C++ connector library

The C++ connector library include class libraries that you need to use when developing a connector. This connector library contains predefined classes for connectors in C++. You use these class libraries to derive connector classes and methods. The class libraries also provide utilities, such as methods to implement tracing and logging services.

For the development of a C++ connector, the C++ Connector Development Kit (CDK) provides the following versions of the C++ connector library:

Important:
Because the CDK is supported only on Windows systems, creation of a C++ connector is supported only on Windows systems.

These CwConnector.lib and CwConnector.dll files reside in the following subdirectory of the product directory:

DevelopmentKits\cdk\lib

Within this directory, the Release and Debug subdirectories include release and debug versions of these development libraries.

Note:
For instructions on building a C++ connector to run on Windows, see "Compiling and linking a C++ connector"..
