libgda 5.1.0



About libgda
============

Libgda is a (relatively small) database access library: * it is a
wrapper like ODBC but with more features to access several database
engines * features a meta data extractor (to know all about database
objects in a common way) * comes with an SQL console application (like
mysql, psql or sqlite3 consoles) * relies on GLib, coded in C, its API
is easy to use * at the moment supports SQLite (and SQLCipher), MySQL,
PostgreSQL, MSAccess, Berkeley Db (and is SQL extension), Oracle and
JDBC (allows access to any database through a JDBC driver), work is in
progress for other database types (such as Firebird). There is also a
special feature which allows one to connect to a database hidden
behing a web server (through specific PHP scripts) * LGPL licensed for
the libraries and GPL licensed for the tools.

See http://www.gnome-db.org for more information.
