SQL Relay

About Download Documentation Mailing List Contribute Promote

In 1998, SQL Relay started out as a system for quickly connecting C++ CGI's to Oracle. Since then, it has grown extensively in many different directions. Though much of the code responsible for this growth was contributed by members of the Open Source community, today I maintain almost all of it myself.

I'd like to be able to focus my own attention more on architecture and core code and hand off components to developers who have more expertise in the applicable areas than I have.

Conceptually, SQL Relay can be broken up into the following components:

  • Core code - base classes, listener, scaler, C++ API, etc.
  • Database connection daemons - Oracle, Sybase, IBM DB2, Interbase, PostgreSQL, MySQL, mSQL, ODBC, SQLite
  • Client API's - C, Perl, Python, PHP, Ruby, Java, TCL, Zope
  • Clients - sqlrsh, query, fields
  • Configuration - sqlr-config-gtk and config file classes
  • Documentation - Guide, Reference, Programming examples, Database-specific documents, etc.
  • Platform support - Testing, support for different database versions, binaries and packages for various operating systems

If you're an experienced developer with resources or skills that could be applied to this project, and are interested in working on it, please message me at dmuse@firstworks.com.

I'm looking forward to building a strong developer community.

David Muse
