PEAR MDB is a merge of the PEAR DB and Metabase php database abstraction layers.
It provides a common API for all support RDBMS. The main difference to most
other DB abstraction packages is that MDB goes much further to ensure
portability.
Currently supported RDBMS are MySQL, PostGreSQL, Oracle, Frontbase, Querysim,
Interbase/Firebird, and MSSQL
PEAR MDB2 is a merge of the PEAR DB and Metabase php database abstraction
layers.
It provides a common API for all supported RDBMS. The main difference to
most other DB abstraction packages is that MDB2 goes much further to
ensure portability. MDB2 provides most of its many features optionally
that can be used to construct portable SQL statements.
PEAR::MDB2_Schema enables users to maintain RDBMS independant schema
files in XML that can be used to create, alter and drop database entities
and insert data into a database. Reverse engineering database schemas from
existing databases is also supported. The format is compatible with both
PEAR::MDB and Metabase.
PEAR::MDB_QueryTool is an OO-abstraction to the SQL-Query language, it provides
methods such as setWhere, setOrder, setGroup, setJoin, etc. to easily build
queries.
It also provides an easy to learn interface that interacts nicely with
HTML-forms using arrays that contain the column data, that shall be
updated/added in a DB. This package bases on an SQL-Builder which lets you
easily build SQL-Statements and execute them.
NB: this is a PEAR::MDB porting from the original DB_QueryTool written by
Wolfram Kriesing and Paolo Panto (vision:produktion, wk@visionp.de).
This extension is a PHP binding for Google LevelDB
A PECL extension to provide read access to MDB data files as used by Microsoft

The sql package adds the command sql to tcl. The author's intention is
to build generic database interface for TCL, but currently he only
supports MySQL.
