Then I might've had to kill you with one of those twisty ties they include with garbage bags. As for BerkeleyDB... well, you don't need to use it directly. As I mentioned, talking about SQL here is sort of off-topic -- SQL is a language for querying databases. MySQL uses (or, can use) BerkeleyDB as a backend; hence you get SQL and BerkeleyDB. Still, you may consider using it separately. At least some of the TinyMUD family did. BerkeleyDB also supports B+Tree access methods, persistent queues, etc. For more information, go straight to the source: http://www.sleepycat.com/ -dak -- +---------------------------------------------------------------+ | FAQ: http://qsilver.queensu.ca/~fletchra/Circle/list-faq.html | | Archives: http://post.queensu.ca/listserv/wwwarch/circle.html | +---------------------------------------------------------------+
