Hello. I need to pipe data into a monetdb database (something along the lines of 'myprocess | MapiClient -s "COPY ...."'. It doesn't seem to be possible out-of-the-box, so I wanted to poke around in the code to find out why and how to fix it (if needed), and hopefully submit a patch.
I've been having a problem with that (playing with the code). I don't know how to 'compile' the modified .mx files in the sql module. I have both bison and flex installed, but the makefile uses the commands 'x' and 'l' to process the .mx, and I don't have any idea of what x and l are.
So, in a nutshell, my question is: "How do I recompile the sql module after I modify the .mx files? What are 'x' and 'l'?"
You will definitely need the buildtools package and possibly the MonetDB package, both from the MonetDB repository at SourceForge. In MonetDB there is a file HowToStart which explains how to get buildtools and then refers you to the README file in buildtools on how to compile that. -- Sjoerd Mullender
