Thanks, for the extra info. I'm looking to create a multi-user
inventory type application for a customer. They want it custom and
to run on Mac OS X.
I guess what I'm really going to do is develop the front end in
Cocoa and use SOAP for all of the database communications.
JDBC would be a good way to go, if the Cocoa-Java bridge were still
supported, as JDBC drivers are easy to get. (This is the reason that
so many generic database interface applications are written in Java.)
That said, Mac OS X has built-in support for ODBC using iODBC; there's
a detailed description here:
http://www.iodbc.org/index.php?page=docs/macosodbcstory/index
and you can download the SDK here:
http://sourceforge.net/project/showfiles.php?group_id=90493
Using that, you ought to be able to do your database interface using
the iODBC library in C (or even Python or Ruby if you want to).
Cheers,
Brett
