I only discovers D a few days ago, but already I am considering recoding my game stats tool (AEstats) written in ANSI C. I would love to be able to control a database from my code, though:

Sofar I have been using Cygwin and Linux (Suse/Debian) to create executable for Windows and Linux. Alas ANSI C will probably never interface with MySQL or DB XML.

Has anyone been able to make D use/control a database library like MySQL or DB XML?

For both of these DBs C++ libs exist, but since D is no C++ lib link compatible (from D online manual), I am wondering if there is *any* way to control a "powerful widespread" database from D at all?

Thanx.

I don't know the answer to your questions, but these links might prove helpful: http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?DatabaseBindings http://www.prowiki.org/wiki4d/wiki.cgi?AllLibraries/XmlLibraries

Thank you... your links were exactly what I was looking for. It seems MYSQL can be fully accessed via D... awesome news.

Boy am I looking forward to coding in D :)
