Description-en: SQL client library for GNUstep (development files)
The SQLClient library is designed to provide a simple interface to
SQL databases for GNUstep applications. It does not attempt the sort
of abstraction provided by the much more sophisticated GDL2 library
but rather allows applications to directly execute SQL queries and
statements.
Major features:
.
* Simple API for executing queries and statements.
* Simple API for combining multiple SQL statements into a single
transaction.
* Supports multiple sumultaneous named connections to a database
server in a thread-safe manner.
* Supports multiple simultaneous connections to different database
servers with backend driver bundles loaded for different database
engines.
* Configuration for all connections held in one place and referenced
by connection name for ease of configuration control.
* Thread safe operation.
.
Supported backend bundles are ECPG, Postgres, MySQL and SQLite.
.
This package contains the development files and the library reference
documentation.
