I use d for some time for the job. And it is good. And I want to use it consistently for the production, but as soon as I started with the simplest - the connection to the database, I realized that the language is not yet ready for it. Or suggest the use of crutches on the forum.

So, there are plans to create a native library for connecting to databases to begin with?

Thanks in advance
Regards, Sergey.

sorry for being rude, i mean that we have mysql-native, for the start. and we can easily use any C library. i.e. working on "native" libraries at least started, and connecting to DB servers is possible.

I found this (and similar topics):
http://forum.dlang.org/thread/l403bf$139g$1@digitalmars.com?page=1

But there is no good solution for the production, which need reliability.

I tried this:

but does not work.

mssql is not a database of choise. ;-) i.e. there aren't alot of people writing DB frontends in D, and those who writing web apps using mysql. so i don't think that you'll find something better that what we have now. virtually nobody is using mssql with GNU/Linux.

And most people are now using MariaDB!

To put it shortly - very unlikely. Well, unless you do it yourself, of course, and contribute to the community :) It has a very small application domain and is not a blocker in a sense that C bindings can still be used. I'd consider it a very low priority issues on its own.

If there is a C library for MSSQL you should be able to use that from your D code. If you do, it would be handy for others if you could publish any bindings you create as a dub package (code.dlang.org).

Really? I am yet to do any project with it instead of MySQL.
