Thanks for the quick reply! You got to it even faster than I thought you would.
I have one more question and then I'll quit bugging you and start being productive: Is there any high-level documentation or any kind of searchable javadocs? For example, as of right now I don't know a good way to find the system's query parser, except just digging through all the classes until I see something "query parser"-ish. I saw that there were SOME javadocs, but they looked more like end-user javadocs (JDBC APIs, Tools APIs, etc). Thanks again for your help. -Evan On Jan 9, 9:35 am, "Thomas Mueller" <[email protected]> wrote: > Hi, > > Sorry for the delay. > > > For a course project, we are required to > > analyze a large open source DBMS and add functionality to the engine. > > That sounds like a cool project! > > > but I wanted to make sure I wasn't diving into something > > that you are already working on.
