REXX/SQL
A REXX interface to SQL databases
General:
-------
REXX/SQL provides a simple interface for REXX programs to access SQL databases
through a number of external functions. REXX/SQL is intended to provide a
consistant interface to all SQL databases.
REXX/SQL is distributed under the GNU General Public License. See the file
COPYING for more details. The "home" anon ftp site for REXX/SQL is:
ftp.qut.edu.au/src/REXXSQL
This directory is mirrored on a daily basis in the US at:
ftp.xylogics.com/pub/misc/REXXSQL
The source code for each database interface code is in a separate archive
file. The general format of the archive files is:
rxsql???nn.ext
where: ??? is the TLA for the database port, nn is the version number and
ext is the archive file type. eg. the REXX/SQL Oracle port for Version 1.3
in compressed tar file format is; rxsqlora13.tar.Z.
Documentation, in Postscript and HTML is available in rxsqldocnn.ext and
sample programs are in rxsqlsamnn.ext.
The documentation is intended as both a user's guide and a reference
guide for implementors of REXX/SQL on other database and operating system
platforms.
All text files are stored in Unix text file format. ie LF only.
Current Release:
---------------
The current release of REXX/SQL is 1.3. This version contains ports of
REXX/SQL for Oracle (ora) and mSQL (min).
