Dr Dobb's Database Development; Tools and Techniques

by Eugene Eric Kim (Editor)

Learn how to build fast, efficient, scalable, and functional database applications. The book presents expert programming techniques that can be used with specific database management systems, as well as ODBC and the CLI. Additional articles highlight Web database programming with Java, object-to-relational mapping, and cache management. The Web has become a worldwide platform for distributing objects and has heightened interest in object databases. Despite their growing popularity, object databases are woefully lacking in documentation. In addition, there are no widely adopted standards for object databases. Implementing object technology under these circumstances has proven to be "a great challenge," as editor Kim euphemistically writes in his introduction. Dr. Dobb's Database Development Tools and Techniques provides both the theoretical background and hands-on examples you'll need to meet this challenge. All code samples listed in the book are included on the companion floppy. Dr. Dobb's Journal is recognized as the world's leading authority on programming. The Programmer's Resource Series is a joint effort of several leading software development magazines, among them Dr. Dobb's Journal, Dr. Dobb's Sourcebook, C/C++ Users Journal, Web Techniques, and Windows Developer's Journal.
