Good afternoon all, I've written a utility program in vanilla C++ to help with a project. I thought I would make it available to the community.
It reads fixed format text files and loads the result into an Sqlite3 table. The table loaded, positions of the fields within the file, and input file are given on the command line. You can also specify literal strings to be loaded into table columns. There's nothing terribly new about it but it was useful as a learning exercise and integrates very well with shell scripting. I will probably add the ability to handle delimited files and index drop/recreate. If there's any interest let me know and I'll make it available.
