I just want to signal to C skilled (and willing) people
here that there is a new interesting RDBMS server called
picoSQL (www.picosoft.it).

Besides beeing really small (the tarball with server +
client programs + library + jdbc driver + sample db + doc
is ~ 2.8Mb) it's really full-featured and fast. It's
available for Linux and NT, it has a windows ODBC driver
(and JDBC driver, too), and ODBC 2.5 compliant C/C++ API.
It supports transactions, row level locking, BLOBS, sub-
queries and more...

Well: I think it really needs a PHP module !!!

The documentation claims it's distributed under GPL and
I've read that this can be a problem. By the way the
package also contains a Mozilla Public License file.
I've posted a message to PicoSoft asking wether the API client library is under GPL or LGPL. Hope they'll answer
soon.

Gabriele Carioli

This is the right link:

http://www.picosoft.it/picosql/

The main page is only in italian!

I'd like to do this, using swig (www.swig.org)

Well, I've done it, if there's no objection I'll add it to CVS.

Someone else (bilo@mit.it ?) will need to write the documentation and see how usable it actually is.

I though't I'd add a note on how easy this is with swig-cvs:

# make work directory
mkdir picosql-php
cd picosql-php

# make interface file to depend on picosql .h files
# we could craft our own .i file if we wanted
cat > picosql.i <<END
%module picosql
%{
#include <odbcsql.h>
%}

%include win4unix.h
%include odbcsql.h
END

# generate php module - very easy, need cvs version of swig
swig -php4 -c++ -shadow -phpfull -I/usr/include -withincs odbcsql.h -o picosql_wrap.cpp picosql.i

# compile!
phpize
./configure --with-picosql=/usr
make
make install

# then test the module loading
php php_picosql.php

I think you should make it a PECL package, as this is not really a mainstream database.

samjam's email doesn't work, so removing the assigned flag.

Currently there is a picoSql wrapper in PECL  :
