#include "ODBPP.h"

CODBPP::Segment index1Segments[] = {{0,(CODBPP::Mode)0}};
CODBPP::Index indexes[] = {{0,CODBPP::B_TREE,1,0,index1Segments}
CODBPP::Field fields[] = {
   {CODBPP::UINT32, 0, 4, 0,0,u"First"},
   {CODBPP::FLOAT64,8, 8, 0,0,u"Second"},
   {CODBPP::ASTR,   16,32,0,0,u"Third"}
};
CODBPP::Schema schema = {0,1,0,0,3,0,0,u"Table Name",NULL,fields, indexes};

int wmain(int argc, wchar_t* argv[])
{
   unsigned __int64 error;
   const char16_t *message;
   CODBPP database;
   if(database.OpenDatabase(u"YourDatabase") == NO_ERROR){
      if((error = database.BeginTransaction(CODBPP::EXCLUSIVE)) == NO_ERROR){
         if((error = database.CreateTable(&schema)) == NO_ERROR){
            ...
         }
      }
      if(error && database.GetErrorMessage(&message) == NO_ERROR)
