22cdf0e10cSrcweirHow to write my own sdbc driver
23cdf0e10cSrcweir
24cdf0e10cSrcweirPre implementation steps
25*a893be29SPedro Giffuni- search all occurrences of skeleton and replace them to a name which you prefer
26cdf0e10cSrcweir
27cdf0e10cSrcweir1. Implement a class called driver or modify the existing skeleton	-> have a look at SDriver.?xx
28cdf0e10cSrcweir2. Implement a class called connection					-> have a look at SConnection.?xx
29cdf0e10cSrcweir3. Have a look at the DatabaseMetaData					-> see SDatabaseMetaData.cxx
30cdf0e10cSrcweir	The methods which should be implemented at least are
31cdf0e10cSrcweir		- getTableTypes
32cdf0e10cSrcweir		- getTables
33cdf0e10cSrcweir		- getTypeInfo
34cdf0e10cSrcweir		- getColumns
35cdf0e10cSrcweir
36cdf0e10cSrcweir4. You need a statement to show/access some data				-> have a look at SStatement.cxx
37cdf0e10cSrcweir										-> especially executeQuery()
38cdf0e10cSrcweir
39cdf0e10cSrcweir5. The ResultSet: without you see nothing					-> look at SResultSet.cxx
40cdf0e10cSrcweir6. The ResultSetMetaData needed to get some information about what are waiting for us
41cdf0e10cSrcweir										-> look at SResultSetMetaData.cxx
42cdf0e10cSrcweir
43cdf0e10cSrcweir7. The prepared statement is the last class we have to implement now
44cdf0e10cSrcweir	-> you have to allow statements like "SELECT * FROM table WHERE id = ?"
45cdf0e10cSrcweir
46cdf0e10cSrcweir8. congratulations you have now implement your own driver :-)
