Xbsql is a wrapper library that provides an sql-subset interface to the xbase dbms. xbsql in no way provides anything like a complete sql implementation and in any case is hampered by various limitations of xbase (such as no notion of a null value). it does, however, implement a fairly useful subset, including select, insert, update and delete. select for instance supports joins, ordering, grouping, and the having clause.

this package contains the files to build c++ applications as well as the programming documentation. use the libxbsql-bin package to be get a shell-like, interactive utility.
