You can dynamically link to an APR library. > Have you used both libdbi and the database bits of APR? Is there any > advantage to using libdbi compared to APR? I've either used one or the other. I expect you can use both but can't see any reason to. apr is more frequently updated, has many other functions (e.g. a complete memory pool manager), and works on a wider range of platforms I believe (including Windows). libdbi is simpler than APR to get used to, and has a smaller memory footprint. You should also compare the choice of backends if you care about that. -- Alex Bligh ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ _______________________________________________ libdbi-users mailing list libdbi-users@lists.sourceforge.net https://lists.sourceforge.net/lists/listinfo/libdbi-users
