- Franz, Inc. tech support says they don't know of any product that provides a
- SQL interface to Allegro (I assume you want a Sybase interface). Are you
- absolutely tied to Allegro? If not, there are several other knowledge base
- development environments that support database interfaces to a number of
- RDBMSs. The products I know about are: Mercury KBE (Lisp),
- Knowledgeworks 2.0 (Lisp), Prokappa (C), and Nexpert Object (language?).
-
- If you decide to write your own foreign function binding to Sybase's API,
- you may want to look at the Allegro-to-Postgres interface code
- distributed with Postgres. You certaintly won't be able to use it as is,
- but it might get you started.
-
- Good Luck!
