libdbi-drivers - drivers for libdbi, the Database
Independent Abstraction Layer for C
Copyright (C) 2001-2004, Markus Hoenicka
http://libdbi-drivers.sourceforge.net
WINDOWS-SPECIFIC INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
-------------------------------------------
libdbi-drivers can be compiled into DLL files on Win32 with the Cygwin
package, available at http://www.cygwin.com/. libdbi must be properly
installed before attempting to build libdbi-drivers, and you need the
appropriate client libraries of the database engines.
To build a particular driver, run these commands, where:
- XYZ is one of msql, mysql, pgsql, or sqlite for MiniSQL, MySQL,
PostgreSQL, and SQLite, respectively
- /path/to/lib is (usually) /usr/local/lib/mysql for MySQL and
/usr/local/msql3/lib for MiniSQL. The LDFLAGS stuff is not required
for building the PostgreSQL and SQLite drivers.
./configure --with-driverXYZ
make
make install
make libXYZ-dll -f Makefile.w32 LDFLAGS="-L/path/to/lib"
make install-libXYZ -f Makefile.w32
If you want to build and install all drivers, use the following commands:
./configure --with-mysql --with-pgsql --with-msql --with-sqlite
make
make install
make -f Makefile.w32 LDFLAGS="-L/usr/local/lib/mysql -L/usr/local/msql3/lib"
make install -f Makefile.w32
The good news is that this works at all. The bad news is that the DLL magic
could be integrated into the standard Makefiles with some extra effort
and a better understanding of the autotools.
CYGWIN DETAILS:
---------------
There are unfortunately no "Cygwin" releases in a sense as there are Debian 2.2
or FreeBSD 4.5. However, libdbi-drivers should work with any Cygwin release
since around Jan 2003.
USAGE:
------
Once libdbi is compiled for Win32 and you have a DLL, you can use that DLL like
any other. The only requirement is that the cygwin runtime DLL is available on
the target machine also, since non-Windows API functions are implemented by
cygwin.
MODIFICATIONS AND REDISTRIBUTION (GPL):
----------------------------------------
See the file COPYING or http://www.gnu.org for more details.
