Seems so. I spent some time lurking on #guile with irc asking around. After a while Dave Thompson jumped in and suggested I fire up the FFI and wrap some C libraries. > For a one-off job, I'd try to call tsql as a sub-process and parse > its output; for a more robust and durable solution, a binary interface > to the FreeTDS libraries might be the right thing to do. After poking around in the FFI docs in the manual it seems like that's the way to go. Doesn't seem so hard. So far I've made a few C functions to play around with and used pointer->procedure and dynamic-link to pull them into guile. Seems to be working well. Next step is to attempt the same with FreeTDS and iODBC (or unixodbc..) > (Alas, I have no MS SQL database I could play around with... without > getting fired, that is :-) omg... I'm trapped in windows world right now and longing for my beautiful postgres. I'll keep at it though. Thanks for the advice in any case T. Godd to know I'm on the right track. Much appreciated! -j -- ------------------------------------------------------------- Jamil Egdemir [email protected] http://www.power-quant.org Help support the Free Software Movement! http://www.gnu.org/ -------------------------------------------------------------
