XbWrapper is small and simple, and is only a one thousand
lines of source. So if the functionality you are looking for is more
than a simple configuration file parser, XbWrapper could be for you.
XbWrapper based on interpreter and wrapper functions library.
About functions library:
This library is designed as a set of XBase commands and functions and
provided wrappers for work with Access databases.You establish connection
from your application and further, in the scripts, you will work with the Access tables
using XBase like functions and commands
in application:
XbParser parser=new XbParser(lexer);
parser.DbClass=new DbWrapper("book.mdb");
in script:
# bookstock is table from book.mdb
# make dataset
use bookstock
# set current work table
select bookstock
while !eof()
? bookstosk.booktitle
# in expression bookstock is table and booktitle is field name
# bookstosk.booktitle=something means store in field "booktitle" variable
# something
skip
endwhile
There are some XBase like functions and commands that you may use with your
scripts application.
These are:
use
select
skip
eof()
fcount()
recno()
reccount()
field(integer n) ant etc.
For full information see source code.
