Subj : Connecting CPP with a Fast,local and free Database To : borland.public.cpp.borlandcpp From : Khaled Date : Sat Jun 25 2005 03:37 pm Hello, I have a question and I hope that I'm in the right newsgroup. I began working lately with the Borland C++ Builder. I'm really amused of its capabilities. I read more about connecting a Borland C++ Project with a database in the toturials written there. I was wondering if anybody can help me in this issue: Is there a better and faster combination of connecting an C++ project with a "local" database? The entire database shouldn't be actually connected to the project, only maybe one big entry of names and addresses of it is necessary. Should one add only a library to the C++ Program instead of connecting to the database each time when a query is required? I'm planning to make a C++ search code for looking for addresses and names in this big entry, and that it should installed in the future locally and freely without the need of a connection to a remote server. I hope I explained my point clearly, otherwise I'm ready to explain more. I really appreciate your help, Thanks, Khaled .
