Requirements
------------
Any windows platform W95, W98, W98SE or NT family
A C++ compiler, if you use other than Borland some minor changes could
be required.
The program
-----------
The source program is quite small (about 50 Kbytes) and a litle basic,
but gives an easy way of accessing a SQL Database, like SQLite.
Inside the prg you can find several C functions used to connect to the
database, and Clipper/Harbour code used for calling C functions.
Most of the code is commented and is easy to follow.
Of course many enhancement would be done, I will do if I found spare
time :)
The library that come with the program it's based in the SQLite version
2.8.6
Purpose
-------
To access a sqlite database using Clipper/Harbour language.
Use
---
This program is mostly self-contained.
For using you needs:
1- Borland C++ Compiler BCC 5.5 or upper (working)
2- Harbour version 0.42 or upper (working)
3- hbsqlite.prg (main program /front end)
4- hbsqlite.ch (some defines)
5- sqlite.lib (library builded for BCC55 and windows platform)
6- sqlite.h (include file for sqlite code)
7- sqliteInt.h (include file for sqlite code)
8- example.db (a simple sqlite database for testings )
Steps:
1.- Unzip the package to the target directory (ie.: \sqlite)
2.- Keep the zip file at safe place :)
3.- Add sqlite.lib to the list of libraries
You also needs to add sqlite.lib to the list of libraries inside
the build.bat file at harbour\bin directory.
4.- Move the static library sqlite.lib to the harbour\lib directory.
5.- If you have (1) & (2) working, just compile hbsqlite.prg using:
bld_b32 hbsqlite // without extension
Information about SQLITE
------------------------
1. web site at www.sqlite.org
2. User list for sqlite (do not ask about harbour stuffs)
subscribe at:
<sqlite-users-subscribe@sqlite.org> (one by one)
<sqlite-users-digest-subscribe@sqlite.org> (digest mode)
What is inside the source package ?
-----------------------------------
Inside the hbsqlite_src.zip file you will find:
File Size Description
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1- hbsqlite.prg 46.401 (main program /front end)
2- hbsqlite.ch 3.369 (some defines)
3- sqlite.lib 352.256 (lib builded for BCC55 and windows platform)
4- sqlite.h 31.222 (include file for sqlite code)
5- sqliteInt.h 53.893 (include file for sqlite code)
6- gpl.txt 17.989 (a copy of GPL license)
7- todo.txt (a list of pending things )
8- readme_en.txt (this readme)
Note:
You may want also the sqlite manager and the sample database, in that
case you must download the binary package.
What is inside the binary package ?
-----------------------------------
Inside the hbsqlite_bin.zip file you will find:
File Size Description
--------------------------------------------------------------------------
1- hbsqlite.exe 741.376 (harbour front end to sqlite)
2- sqlite.exe 285.444 (a comand-line Sqlite manager)
3- example.db 77.824 (a simple sqlite database for testings)
4- test.db (another sqlite database for testings)
5- readme_en.txt (this readme)
Final comments
--------------
You can adapt the program to your needs, but if you made any
improvements, fixes or found any error, let me know so I can add it
to the program.
Anyway if you want to ask something, or think a feature is missing
send me a mail.
Enjoy it!
