<title>db++ database functions</title>
<para>
This paper describes the the db++ extension which enables PHP to
access db++ relation files through all of the search and update
methods available in the client/server "C" library interface of
db++ and to read and process the output of a db++ query.
db++, made by the german company
<ulink url="&url.dbplus.company;">Concept asa</ulink>,
is a relational database system with high performance and low
memory and disk usage in mind. While providing SQL as an
additional language interface it is not really a SQL database in
the first place but provides its own AQL query language which is
much more influenced by the relational algebra then SQL is.
</para>
<para>
Concept asa always had an interest in supporting open source
languages, db++ has had Perl and Tcl call interfaces for years
now and uses Tcl as its internal stored procedure language.
