libdbi - Database Independent Abstraction Layer for C
Copyright (C) 2001-2003, David Parker and Mark Tobenkin.
http://libdbi.sourceforge.net
WINDOWS-SPECIFIC INSTALLATION INSTRUCTIONS:
-------------------------------------------
Thanks to Markus Hoenicka, libdbi can be compiled into DLL files on Win32 with
the Cygwin package, available at http://sources.redhat.com/cygwin/
./configure --with-mysql --with-pgsql
make
make install
make -f Makefile.w32
make -f Makefile.w32 install
CYGWIN DETAILS:
---------------
There are unfortunately no "Cygwin" releases in a sense as there are Debian 2.2
or FreeBSD 4.5. All components, including the cygwin1.dll, gcc, bash etc. have
their own independent versions. The most important package for the new-style
Makefile to work is the binutils package (linker and such), which should be
"binutils-20011002-1" or newer.
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.
