Free graphical database software for linux

If you are like me you have hundreds or even thousands of images ever since you got your first camera, some taken with a normal camera other with a digital camera.
Through all the years you believed that until eternity you would be able to remember the story behind every single picture, you would be able to remember the names of all the persons on your images, and you would be able to remember the exact date of every single image.
I personally realized that this was not possible anymore, and especially for my digital images - but also for my paper images - I needed a tool to help me describe my images, and to search in the pile of images. This is exactly what KimDaba is all about.
With KimDaBa it is today possible for me to find any image I have in less than 5 seconds, let that be an image with a special person, an image from a special place, or even both.
There is of course no such thing as free lunch - with KimDaBa this means that you have to annotate all your images before you are set. KimDaBa is, however, highly optimized for annotating images, so annotating 100 images in 10 minutes are no way impossible.

Mckoi SQL Database is a full featured SQL-92 relational database management system written in Java.

The software can operate as either a dedicated multi-client, multi-threaded database server, or can be used as an embedded database inside a Java application.

The engine is designed to be easy to use and maintain and versatile for sophisticated database development tasks. The software provides a JDBC 2.0 driver.

To use Mckoi SQL Database, you will need a JavaTM runtime environment version 1.2 or greater. Sun provides Java runtimes for Win32, Solaris and Linux from their website at http://www.javasoft.com/j2se/. IBM also provides various Java runtimes for a number of platforms at http://www.ibm.com/java/jdk/download/.

When Java has been installed on your system, unpack the mckoi distribution file to a directory in your file system. Then you are ready to create a database and develop your database application.

Creating A Database

Before you can begin development of your database application, you will need to create and configure a blank database. The database configuration file describes all of the configurable properties of the database (details of the database configuration file are covered in the next section). The software ships with a default configuration that looks for a database at path ./data in your filesystem.

To create a database using the default configuration with an admin username of admin_user and password aupass00, go to a prompt, change to the Mckoi Database distribution directory and type:

java -jar mckoidb.jar -create "admin_user" "aupass00"

We do not advise using either this username or password in a production system. The user created here has full control over every aspect of the database so choose a username / password carefully.

When the command has completed, a sub-directory called data will have been generated. This directory is used to store data from the database. A sub-directory called log is also generated which stores debugging and query log information.

Database Configuration

When you run the mckoidb.jar package, it looks for a file named db.conf in the current directory. This file contains a number of variables that determine where the database looks for information, as well as other user-definable properties. The configuration file can be renamed and copied to a different location. If you change the configuration file location, you must supply the location when you run the database;

java -jar mckoidb.jar -conf [location of conf file] .....

You can edit the configuration file with a text editor. The default configuration file that ships with the software contains extensive comments on what each variable does.

Zild Database Library implements a small and easy to use database API with an easy to use API.
Main features:
- ability to connect to multiple database systems
- zero runtime configuration
- ability to connect using a URL scheme
- thread-safe connection pooling.

Open Media Collectors Database project (OpenDb) is a PHP and MySQL based inventory application that allows you to easily catalog and lend media-related items, including DVD, VCD, CD, VHS, games, books, and laser discs.
There are also quite a few Contributed item types available, and if thats not enough you can define your own.
OpenDb is GPL licenced and built on PHP and MySQL. Anything that you can collect and lend, you can catalog with this system. OpenDb allows you to add new types, by describing them in system database tables designed for the purpose.
It includes workflow mechanism for lending, possibility to use different themes and/or creating themes, retrieving data from Amazon, imdb & others, plugins, language packs, etc.
Main features:
- Catalogue all sorts of things including DVD, (S)VCD, DivX, CD, VHS, Games, Books and Laser Discs
- Lending workflow
- Flexible add of new types
- Themes
- Supports metadata from Amazon, imdb, etc.
- Plugins
- Language Packs

The Program Database Toolkit (PDT) is a powerful tool infrastructure that provides access to the high-level interface of source code for analysis tools and applications.
Many tasks in an integrated programming environment require access to program information for their implementation. Program Database Toolkit (PDT) is a framework for analyzing source code written in several programming languages and for making rich program knowledge accessible to developers of static and dynamic analysis tools.
PDT implements a standard program representation, the program database (PDB), that can be accessed in a uniform way through a class library supporting common PDB operations. Software tools can use this library to accomplish tasks such as
- documentation of program components
- creation of graphic program browsers that show class hierarchies, function call graphs, and template instantiations
- insertion of instrumentation for performance profiling and tracing; andgeneration of interface details for calling library routines or buildinginterlanguage bindings.
Enhancements:
- Assorted minor bugfixes.
