Re: [Oorexx-devel] ODBC/MySQL Bounty Question
The product I use in my mainframe-to-Un*x migrations has such drivers; are you interested in open-source or will you pay for a product? -Original Message- From: David Ruggles [mailto:da...@safedatausa.com] Sent: Thursday, July 02, 2009 07:59 To: 'Open Object Rexx Developer Mailing List' Subject: [Oorexx-devel] ODBC/MySQL Bounty Question This is an open question to the list and anyone else that might be interested. Is anyone available who would be interested in writing an ODBC or MySQL interface for ooRexx 4.0? Safe Data, Inc. is heavily dependant on ooRexx and MySQL, however as a company and individually we don't have the C expertise nor the time to implement this ourselves. On the other hand we should be able to front some bounty to see that it gets accomplished. What I would like to do is lay out our goals and see what kind of bounty might be needed and find anyone else in the community who would be willing to offer bounty as well. I'm going to list two sets of requirements, ideal and minimum. Anyone willing to add bounty please indicate which set of requirements (and/or add your own) and how much, anyone willing and able to do the work please indicate how much bounty would be needed for each set of requirements. Ideal Requirements: * Cross Platform * ODBC unixODBC (any ODBC/unixODBC driver) * Stored Functions * Stored Procedures * All Normal SQL Statements (COMMIT, ROLLBACK, SELECT, DELETE, etc.) Minimum Requirements: * Windows (strongly desire Linux also) * MySQL * ALL Normal SQL Statements Thanks, David Ruggles CCNA MCSE (NT) CNA A+ Network EngineerSafe Data, Inc.

Re: [Oorexx-devel] ODBC/MySQL Bounty Question
Is anyone available who would be interested in writing an ODBC or MySQL interface for ooRexx 4.0? Does Rexx/SQL fit the bill? If so I suspect it can be ported without too much trouble. http://rexxsql.sourceforge.net/ I would be happy to look at porting, could possibly start in about a week.

Use Java instead of C, C++ and you are in business using BSF4Rexx. To evaluate with ooRexx 4.0 you could use the official version of BSF4Rexx at http://wi.wu-wien.ac.at/rgf/rexx/bsf4rexx/current/. [There is an experimental version (at beta level, but not yet announced) at http://wi.wu-wien.ac.at/rgf/tmp/20090614_b4r4beta/, which is rewritten for ooRexx 4.0. This version runs the BSF4Rexx testUnits of lately that a student wrote for the older, current version without a failure, so I am pretty confident that it is fully compatible and stable.] Give it a try and start to enjoy what cross-platform Java functionality is directly available to your Rexx programs! In the Java world interfacing with RDBMS is realized with JDBC. If you research a little bit, you will be surprised an overwhelmed what is available to you. HTH, ---rony -- __ Prof. Dr. Rony G.
