Re: wlxdb (Light XML db)

Hi Silvano,

I mostly use libxml2 (see the TclXML project), but it is not a
database so it does not have a XQuery implementation. However, it does
have a XPointer implementation (I don't know whether that useful in a
database context).

Combining libxml2 with some kind of persistent storage with querying
would be very interesting... and extremely useful! For some time I've
thought that would be really good with Metakit.

Cheers,
Steve Ball

Are you planning on supporting XQuery?

Hello,

I have written a light XML db. In order to achieve good performance I
have developed it in C/C++, and I have written the Tcl interface
library, it allows you to use wlxdb in your tcl-scripts. The goal of
my software is not to provide a huge db for big applicatons, but is is
to provide a fast and reliable xml-db to support small programs that
need to write and read in a common area with an xml structure.

If you want an example I have written a package manager, it is
developed in Tcl and use wlxdb.

wlxdb is a part of Linuxwoodo open-source project. This is mainly a
container for sub-projects. So, you can see more details on the
Linuxwoodo website:

 http://linuxwoodo.sourceforge.net

WLXDB WEBSITE SECTION
If you choose wlxdb on the left-side menu then the right-side menu
will show you all the available options (download, ocumentation,...
and so on).

DOWNLOADING
In the download section you can find source code (tar.gz), Slackware
binary package (.tgz), RPM package, and a self installing archive
(.sh). Every package has been tested on Slackware and OpenSuse.

FUTURE
In the future I would change the internal structure to a multi-process
one. Over this I will write the Perl bindings too, and I
will try to write and fix the English documentation. I am sorry
because the English docs are uncompleted and with language errors
inside, but my English is far to be good :-(

For every question, please, write me an email, you can find my contact
details on LinuxWoodo web site.

Thank you very much for your time, I will be happy to read your
feedback, suggestions, comments... and to receive fix, path...

I will be happy to answer to everyone.

Hello Steve,

I do not know XQuery very well, but it is a definitions set for an
interpretated language. This language is oriented to XML as SQL is
oriented to relational databases. So, I have no problem to write an
interface to a XQuery interpreter program, but I have not implemented
that interpreter.

If you use an OSS XQuery interpreter then I can write you the
interface.

Cheers,
