perl-DBD-XBase

DBI compliant driver for module XBase. Please refer to DBI(3) documentation
for how to actually use the module. In the connect call, specify the
directory containing the dbf files (and other, memo, etc.) as the third
part of the connect string. It defaults to the current directory.
Note that with dbf, there is no database server that the driver would talk
to. This DBD::XBase calls methods from XBase.pm module to read and write
the files on the disk directly, so any limitations and features of XBase.pm
apply to DBD::XBase as well. DBD::XBase basically adds SQL, DBI compliant
interface to XBase.pm.
The DBD::XBase doesn't make use of index files at the moment. If you really
need indexed access, check XBase(3) for notes about support for variour
index types.
