Re: [mdb-dev] Java version of mdblib

[Calvin S. <cal...@ho...>]

I wrote the current Java port and it worked well, if a little dated since I have not followed the changes.  
This Java port is in the CVS repository for your use, although the website does not mention it.
My approach was to convert the C code to Java code thus making the Java port 100% pure Java and runnable on any platform Java supports.  I also added a very small JDBC driver so you can use it for basic functions without needing to know anything about mdbtools itslef.  
It should not take much effort to get it going with the latest release.  Contact me off-list if you would like to contract me to do this.
Another project you could look at is: jackcess.sourceforge.net

Subject: [mdb-dev] Java version of mdblib

Hello list,

Two questions.

First of all, is any development being done on this project?  From the sourceforge
CVS and this mailing list I get the impression that mdbtools is not being developed
since three years or so.


Second question, is anybody interested in developing mdbtools further? I am currently
involved in a project that needs to read and write mdb files from Java.  My interest
is therefore primarily to get a good Java version of libmdb.


Thanks, 
best regards,
