MP3DB2 is a collection of bash scripts for keeping track of large MP3 collections. It will retrieve song information from the filenames and ID3 tags of a directory or CD of MP3s and store them in a local database.
This program is a complete rewrite of my MP3 database version 1. Version 1 only stored the data that was present in the filenames while version 2 actually retrieves information from the ID3 tags of each MP3.
Please note that as of this version the database format is NOT considered carved in stone. I have already added a few fields mid-development and this will continue for a while if I think the format can be made better. See the changelog for a list of changes to the database format since V2.0.
Enhancements:
- mp3dupe: now just displays the name of the directory we are checking not the full path in the host filesystem.

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.

Valentina is cross-platform DBMS that makes it easy to switch between a local embedded database and server using the same sources. It supports disk and in-memory databases, field types from Bit to BLOB, and both a SQL92(99) and non-SQL API.
Valentina supports Relational, Extended Navigational, and Object-Relational data models. It introduces a revolutionary model abstraction "Link". It works natively in UTF-16, can accept 270 encodings, and features advanced features such as regular expressions, XML, full-text search, pictures, functions, and calculated fields. It offers triggers, views, and stored procedures.
Enhancements:
- Valentina Studio now has a Diagrams panel for database schema.
- There are new examples on the usage of Link refactorings API and SQL commands.
- There are about 40 bugfixes over the entire product line (kernel, PHP, REALbasic, Director, VCOM, and VStudio).

The Quon DVD Database is a complete solution to manage your movies. Highlights of this program include user tracking, barcode scanner support, user access, a login system, and an advanced searcher.
Quon DVD Database can check DVDs in and out of your collection, allowing you to keep track of which of your friends has them. You can send reminder email messages, or they can simply log in to see what they have checked out.
Enhancements:
- An issue with ordering on a few pages has been fixed.
- The system is forced use the OLD_PASSWORD system, so that when someone moves their database from one host (using an old version of MySQL) to a new one (using a new version of MySQL), the passwords of the existing users wont have to be recreated.

Simple C++ ODBC Database API is designed to encapsulate the ODBC API functionality in an object oriented manner.
The API was created due to an absence of any other such API that was database independent. The database independence is achieved using the ODBC (Open DataBase Connectivity) API.
The API provides a Database object that can be used to create instances of Query objects. The Query objects are used to query a database and allow columns to be bound for the query.
The flowing column objects are currently available (as of Jan 2005): a boolean column, a long column and a string column. The string column makes use of the libstdc++ string class so you dont have to mess around with malloc.
The Database object also has some convenience member functions that allow queries that return a single integer or string to be executed without having to create a query object or bind columns.
The API has been tested to work with both MySql and PostGreSQL on a Debian Linux platform.
Enhancements:
- DoubleColumn, IntColumn, and BigintColumn were added.
- The LongColumn is deprecated.

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.

XML::DB::Database::Exist is a Perl module with XML:DB driver for the eXist database.

SYNOPSIS

use XML::DB::Database::Exist;

This is the eXist XML-RPC driver. It is intended to be used through the XML:DB API, so that it is never called directly from user code. It implements the internal API defined in XML::DB::Database

The methods required to implement the Database interface are documented in Database.pm; only methods unique to eXist, and not required by the XML:DB API are documented here.
