Hi MySQL Listers,
I'm wondering if someone might provide some guidance about what programming
language might best accomplish the following.
I have been asked to write an interactive GUI program that allows for the
display of results from related queries.
For example, launching the application
I would use C + GTK+ (if the os is linux). MySQL has a very nice C API
(which is well-documented, I think) and GTK+ is the most common and
preferred GUI development kit for Linux. If the platform is Windows, the
GUI will be something else but I would still use C for the MySQL stuff.
HTH,
If speed isnt a issue I would say develop with one of the interpreted
languages (Perl/Python)
My experience trying to get anything compiled under linux or windows because
of missing
headers or libraries will cause you and your project to experience
insufferable delay.
Regards,
Martin

May I suggest Python with PyGtk+ and using Glade to build
Hi David,
check out http://gtk.php.net/ It is a GUI toolkit with a PHP interface to allow you to
build client applications.
