Description</h1>
<p>libglom provides API to access <a class="el" href="namespaceGlom.html">Glom</a>'s XML-based <a class="el" href="classGlom_1_1Document.html">Glom::Document</a> structure. AppWindows may use it to load a .glom document and then call methods on the document to discover the connection details and the data structure, including:</p><ul>
<li>The list of tables</li>
<li>The list of fields in each table</li>
<li>The details of each field, such as field type, title, default value, formatting, etc.</li>
<li>The relationships between tables.</li>
<li>The layout of fields on list and details views.</li>
<li>The layout of print layouts.</li>
<li>The layout of reports.</li>
</ul>
<p>libglom also contains utility functions, such as <a class="el" href="namespaceGlom_1_1Utils.html#a185f5bef7a04fbc87453f54177a33370" title="Generate a SQL statement to SELECT field values, even if the fields are in related (or doubly related...">Glom::Utils::build_sql_select_with_where_clause()</a>, to build the complicated SQL queries used by <a class="el" href="namespaceGlom.html">Glom</a> to retrieve information from the database.</p>
<p>See <a href="http://git.gnome.org/browse/glom/tree/glom/libglom/example_document_load.cc">http://git.gnome.org/browse/glom/tree/glom/libglom/example_document_load.cc</a> for a small working example.</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="warning"></a>
Warning</h1>
<p>libglom is not yet API stable, not properly documented, not thoroughly tested, and not yet really intended for serious use by applications other than <a href="http://www.glom.org/">Glom</a> and <a href="http://gitorious.org/qlom">Qlom</a>.</p>
<h1><a class="anchor" id="basics"></a>
Basic Usage</h1>
<p>Include the individual libglom headers. For instance: </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line"><span class="preprocessor">#include <libglom/document/document.h></span></div>
</div><!-- fragment --><p>If your source file is <code>program.cc</code>, you can compile it with: </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line">g++ program.cc -o program `pkg-config --cflags --libs glom-1.24`</div>
</div><!-- fragment --><p>Alternatively, if using autoconf, use the following in <code>configure.ac:</code> </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line">PKG_CHECK_MODULES([DEPS], [glom-1.24])</div>
</div><!-- fragment --><p> Then use the generated <code>DEPS_CFLAGS</code> and <code>DEPS_LIBS</code> variables in the project <code>Makefile.am</code> files. For example: </p><div class="fragment"><div class="line">program_CPPFLAGS = $(DEPS_CFLAGS)</div>
<div class="line">program_LDADD = $(DEPS_LIBS)</div>
</div><!-- fragment --> </div></div><!-- contents -->
