Hello,
First of all thanks for this great piece of software. Although I am
currently using Chessbase 14 (as I use Windows 10 most of the time), I
always check the progress of Scidb and try it in my VM. As a fellow
developer (and FM chess player), I have some questions:
1) It seems that your MSTL overlaps at least partially with the STL. Is
there a reason why you chose to implement things from zero? I understand
Scidb uses some very specialized data structures and algorithms.
2) Is it possible to decouple database functionality from the GUI, and
use it as a library? Eg., to use custom GUIs or scripts (it would be easy
with CQL). Would the library have any chance of being portable? What kind of
work would it require to make it portable?
3) Will Scidb include some any command line utilities for manipulating
databases? Eg copying games from one database to another, converting between
formats, this kind of stuff.
Best regards,
Bogdan
