1. RDBMS
I have followed this thread with interest. I am working on a relational
database in Object Euphoria and am facing all these questions. My intention
is to do it all in OE with my own file format. Anyone who wants to share
database design ideas,code, etc. can email me at
mike-nelson-ODAAT at worldnet.att.net and I will respond ASAP
(which may be a while as I have a full-time job and an 8-week old son.)

Hi,
I followed this discussion a while an there is a CHEAP alternative
for those who can't affort a 'real RDBMS'and don't want to programm.
Use the good old and still going strong DataPerfect. You can find it
at:
http://www.mailinglist.nu/dataperfect/index.htm
Novell put it after the effort of the world wide DP-usergroup in the
public domain and the creator is still improving this program after
a donation from the core users. It's amzingly fast, network ready,
can hold millions of records, runs onder DOS, Dos-window, DOS-Linux.
The only disadvantage is that is is not graphical.
I've build several RDBMS's with this program. Nice, fast, easy.

3. Re: RDBMS
The recent discussions about databases made me go back and
look at some notes I made a few years ago for a simple, flexible
database system for Euphoria. I might be able to upload some
alpha release code in a couple of weeks. I don't want to discourage
anyone else from doing something in this area, as I doubt that my
design will satisfy everyone.

Hi,
I've made some indexing routines based on the skiplist algorithms
found on the pages of Bill Pugh. See URL. The examples shown there
are for in memory lists. I wrote a version for disk access.

The problem is that they are ready for 98%, testing and writing a
sample. I planned to use it with the DBF-routines.
If someone can't wait (it can take a while) I'm willing to share
the code on a basis as it is. A example how to index will be
present.
