[SOLVED] Database Programming using C / C++ & Python

[indiansoil]

How to design and develop databse programs in C or C++ and Python? I like Database Programming a lot. But I have not been able to do much in c / C++. I did create some programs or games which used database or text files to maintain the records. But it was not so efficient.

Any guidelines or resources to help me achive this?

I assume that you are referring to employing a database.

Well, for instance, MySQL provides APIs that allow you to manipulate databases with your program. I have employed the PHP one to great success. You can find some information on them at:
MySQL :: MySQL 5.1 Reference Manual :: 25 APIs and Libraries

So it does depend on what exactly you want to do as to whether it's worth using a database. But the link provides C, C++, and Python APIs, so have a look!

Here's a pdf version of a chapter dedicted to this topic:

Hi, I don't like advertising much , but I've created site dedicated to Linux programming. It's called stosha.net .

Here's a page with ANSI/cross-platform C++ database libraries:

POSIX-compliant C++ database libraries: POSIX database C++ libs


Python Database libraries: here


Hope it helps!
