ADDRESS demonstration program ============================= This is a demonstration database for storing addresses. It gives an adequate impression of what this library was designed for. No complex client/server approach but strait forward functions to read and write records. !! The user interface is NOT PART OF CSLIB! !! !! But it can be downloaded from www.xs4all.nl/~combits for free, !! !! the file is named CSBDTLD.zip. !! !! It is NOT a product we support and it only works with Borland C++ !! !! under DOS large memory model. !! The source consists of two files: 'csadd.cpp' for the user-interface and 'csaddio.cpp' for the database. - 'csaddio.cpp' is generated by the CSDBGEN utility with the file 'csaddio.def' as input. - 'csadd.cpp' is 'hand coded'. The file is about 500 lines. Features ======== This simple demonstration database has already some interesting features: - Incremental search. That is, it 'zero's in' on the name you are looking for with every key entered. Normally it finds the required record after only two or three characters. - Exporting to a dBASE compatible file. The files used by the application are not in the dBASE format, but they can be exported to a dBASE compatible file. - Indexing also on substrings. Contrary to the traditional database, this one is capable of locating a record by searching for a substring of the key field, rather then the entire field.
