Didn’t think I would be writing any C after college, but here I am.
I am still prototyping, but I created a shared library to interact with the Change Data Capture APIs for an Informix database. CDC basically provides a more structured way of reading db logs for replication.
I use the shared library (they luckily had some demo code, I don’t think I would have been able to start from zero with their ESQL/C lang) in some Python code to do bidirectional data replication between Informix and Postgres databases.
Still need to smooth out everything, but I wanted to shoutout all those people who write C libraries and the Python wrappers that make the language usable in a multitude of domains!
