Does anyone know of a decent way to access a SQL Server 2000 database?

I make heavy use of SQL Server from Jython using Microsoft's JDBC driver. This works great if it is an option for you.


Otherwise if your client is on Windows take a look at adodbapi. I have just played around with this enough to see that it will connect to SQL Server so I can't vouch for the quality but at least it claims to be ready for production use.

eGenix sells an ODBC adapter:

I've gotten some versions working using dbi,odbc and defining a DSN on the computer, but I'd like to be able to specify a server, user, pass, and database in code. As far as I can tell, I'd have to define a DSN for every database I'd want to use.

I found this via google:
http://www.object-craft.com.au/projects/mssql/
but that has a lot of strong language saying "this isn't ready for use".

Has anyone done this before and come up with a reasonable solution?


Thanks,
Ryan
