  • Patent number: 5742810
    Abstract: A system and method for passing arrays and structures as host variables to a stored procedure. An application program packs an array or structure into a binary large object (BLOB) and sends the BLOB to a database management system. An adapter called by the database management system, and coupled to the stored procedure, passes a reference to the data area in the BLOB to the stored procedure. After completion of the stored procedure, the BLOB is returned to the application program. Finally, upon the return from the stored procedure call, the application program unpacks the BLOB back into the array or structure.

  • Patent number: 4677797
    Abstract: A knockdown housing structure formed of a number of wall panels which are interconnected together. The wall panels are slidably interconnected by the use of projecting pins which are slidably received in elongated slots. Pins are formed on one edge of each wall panel for direct engagement in slots formed in one edge of a horizontally adjacent wall panel. Connecting strips having projecting pins are utilized for interconnecting vertically adjacent wall panels. Each of the panels and connecting strips can be slid into place. The projecting pins have enlarged heads and the slots include spaced apart enlarged openings interconnected by a narrow slit. The pins can be inserted in either of the enlarged openings and slid to the narrow slit where the pins are maintained in place.
