NAME

Genezzo - an extensible database with SQL and DBI

SYNOPSIS

  # partial DBI interface
  use Genezzo::GenDBI; 

  # Users can directly create and manipulate database tables using 
  # gendba.pl, an interactive line-mode tool.

DESCRIPTION

  The Genezzo modules implement a hierarchy of persistent hashes using
  a fixed amount of memory and disk.  This system is designed to be
  easily configured and extended with custom functions, persistent
  storage representations, and novel data access methods.  In its
  current incarnation it supports a subset of SQL and a partial
  DBI interface.

GETTING STARTED

  The simplest way to create an instance of a Genezzo database is to use:

    gendba.pl -init

  This command will create a new database and login to the
  command-line.  Typing "help" on the command line will list the 
  available commands.  Additional help for gendba.pl is available via 
  "gendba.pl -help".
