软件简介

JSDB 是 JavaScript 用来访问数据的开发包，是一个数据驱动的脚本语言，支持数据库、XML 和 Web 以及 Email。

JSDB is based on Mozilla SpiderMonkey and class libraries developed by
Raosoft, Inc. The open-source version is free with fairly generous license
terms. Additional functionality or even less restrictive license terms may be
purchased from Raosoft, Inc.

JSDB can treat any DBF/xBase, ASCII, Oracle, Sybase, DB/2, Postgres, MySql,
Access, or Microsoft SQL Server table equivalently, translating high-level
(set(row,field,value), get(row,field)) function calls to database-specific
SQL commands. The same applies to email: you can communicate with Lotus Notes,
Exchange (MAPI), and SMTP/POP3 mail systems interchangably with a single set
of function calls.

JSDB also includes a stream object that gives you a common interface to files,
COM ports, sockets, HTTP, pipes, and memory. The ability to treat memory as if
it were a file helps you write reusable code that is easily adapted to a
variety of situations.

For writing distributed XML web applications, JSDB comes with an Internet
server component and an XML parser, both implemented in a balance of C++ and
JavaScript for optimum speed and flexibility.

You might use JSDB to:

• translate XML into SQL statements,
• translate SQL databases into XML,
• generate HTML documentation from an XML or Oracle database,
• download web pages while you sleep,
• index their contents in a database,
• send personalized email based on a database,
• or run a web database
