Re: [mdb-dev] Java version of mdblib

[Murray C. <mu...@fo...>]

Hi Jan

There is not a lot of activity here, however there are many like myself who
continue to use this library.

I'm guessing a little but my feeling is that most of us use mdbtools to
simply retrieve information from an mdb file - the data is simply extracted
into a CSV file.

There was a recent version that provided some basic update functions on an
mdb file, however I got the impression that this was not complete - as you
can imagine there are lots of conditions a database needs to handle in order
to maintain integrity etc.

Were you planning on using JNI?  I assume there is no way for you to use
JDBC and leave the mdb on a windows server?

Cheers
