Dear all,
As we are writing a windows application which will store and query structured documents in a database and we want to use MonetDB/XQuery as database backend, we wondered what the easiest method is to access MonetDB/XQuery from C#. For what it's worth: parsing the XML results is of course no problem, and ODBC is supported. Hopefully some of you can point us to a workable solution.
Thanks in advance, The problem with the MonetDB ODBC driver is that it currently doesn't support anything but SQL. The JDBC driver does support the XQuery backend, so perhaps that would be a possibility? Otherwise you may have to go directory to the Mapi library which supports all backends.
If ODBC does a similar hack as JDBC, my bet is that ODBC can support MonetDB/XQuery as "good" as JDBC. It will mean special operations such as all catalog request information, transaction statements, etc won't work, but normal querying should work. I'd like to see ODBC using this special method in MonetDB/XQuery as well.
So it seems there is an opportunity for those in need for the missing functionality to contribute the necessary patch to the ODBC code base. It will be highly appreciated by the MonetDB community.
