Java Interface to ACEDB
C++ Interface to ACEDB
This interface is developed mainly for my projects to write CPU intensive
programs that manipulate sequence data. Another reason to write this interface
is due to the fact that when manipulating very long genomic sequences such as
those from the human genome annotation, both the java and the perl interface
tend to exhaust the system memory. With C++, memory can be tightly managed
(by the driver) and such problem can be eliminated. This has been proven by
my personal experience.
I have not written a web version
for the programming interface; however if you are a programmer you should
have no problem using this package because all the documents are in the *.h
(header) files.
By looking at the test program you should be able to use this package. The
interface is not complete yet. If you need some functionality please let
me know.
How to Use the Drivers
The most important thing to remember is that you have to be familar with
ACEDB before start writing programs interacting with ACEDB. Please read
documents at the ACEDB site as to how to set up ACEDB SERVERS. The documents
are very well written there.
