REBOL + mySQL on Win32*

 [1/2] from: chris::gameshrine::com at: 13-Dec-2000 17:55


Hi all, I'm running CORE on a WinME machine purely as a low end dev environment, and I'm busy writing some content provision software; and REBOL seems to me to be the perfect choice. My Q is this; does REBOL CORE (Experimental) support direct connections, either via TCP/Sockets to mySQL databases ? If so, can anyone point me in the right direction on how to establish these; I guess I could open a normal TCP connection on the mySQL port and write a function to handle the write in/read out, but that could be less efficient than a built in db support - if that exists. Currently I have REBOL executing a remote below-the-web-tree PHP script that deals with the DB interface and I'd like to knock that out of the loop if possible. -- Best regards, Chris mailto:[chris--gameshrine--com]

Hi Chris, you can access the database through tcp, but will have to do your own protocol handling. The question has been raised a few times, but AFAIK noone has a working solution so far. Command would give you ODBC access, but I think no direct access to MySQL, so far. kind regards, Ingo Once upon a time Chris Walker spoketh thus:
