## Chapter 1. Get in contact with your SQL Server

Example 1.1. Get in contact with your SQL Server

    #define HAVE_SSTREAM 1
    #include <hk_classes.h>
    #include <iostream>
    int main()
    {
     hk_drivermanager* mydrivermanager = new hk_drivermanager();
     if (mydrivermanager==NULL) {cout <<"error creating mydrivermanager"<<endl;exit(1);}
     hk_connection* myconnection = mydrivermanager->new_connection();
     if (myconnection==NULL) {cout <<"error creating myconnection"<<endl;exit(1);}
     myconnection->connect();
     delete mydrivermanager;
    }

This is the shortest hk_classes program. First create a object instance of hk_drivermanager(). It handles the databasedriver management.

To connect to a SQL server you need a instance of hk_connection. By creating it, the wished database driver will be selected. When you connect with the "connect()"-command the password and some other information will be asked.

Nothing really visible happens here.To get in contact with your data just see the next chapters.
