Re: Accesing Databases

G'Day !

Someone wrote a frontend for a PostgreSQL database using GTK+, you could
probably extend that code fairly easily or at least figure out how they did it.

you'll need to look at the MySQL and PostgreSQL docs to see their
respective APIs. look at http://www.mysql.org and www.postgresql.org

> One more thing... is there a special library to access databases with gtk+?
you may want to use gnome-db (http://www.gnome-db.org) which offers several
database-oriented widgets, such as a grid, a list, a connection dialog, etc.
And it's totally db-independent. Although, of course, it's for GNOME.
