gb.mysql
The goal of
gb.mysql is to create MySQL specific routines and then sent them to the
gb.db to be executed.
For example, the
Date DataType in Gambas represents a date and time value (06-08-1981 04:25:08), in MySQL the Date DataType represents only dates in a range from '1000-01-01' to '9999-12-31'.
One of the abilities of gb.db is to be “type independent” which means that if you create a database with some tables using gb.db, the component will be able to create it in any
Database Manager supported by gb.db (i.e ODBC, sqlite, postgresql, etc), it is great, but if you have to create a specific database with specific datatypes in MySQL you should use gb.mysql.
This component is not stable yet.
Example
The following example shows the way to use
gb.mysql
Public Procedure CreateDatabase()

.Type = "mysql"
.Port = "3306"
.Host = "localhost"
.User = "root"
.Password = "mypass"
.Name = "Gambas"
.Open()
End With
