HSQLDB is an SQL relational database engine written in Java. It has a JDBC driver and supports a rich subset of SQL-92 (BNF tree format) plus SQL:2.29 and SQL:2.23 enhancements. It offers a small, fast database engine that offers both in-memory and disk-based tables. Embedded and server modes are available. Additionally, it includes tools such as a minimal web server, in-memory query and management tools (can be run as applets), and a number of demonstration examples.

This package contains some scripts to invoke the Utilities of HSQLDB (org.hsqldb.util.*): - hsqldb-databasemanager: DatabaseManager - hsqldb-databasemanagerswing: DatabaseManagerSwing - hsqldb-transfer: Transfer - hsqldb-sqltool: SqlTool
