It fills the gap between flat-file, relational, +object-oriented, and tree-structured databases, supporting +relational joins, serialization, nested structures, and instant schema +evolution. There is a C++ API, a Python binding called Mk4py, and a Tcl +binding called Mk4tcl. You can manipulate and exchange data between +any of these. + +Data files are portable. The library has been used on Unix, Windows, +Macintosh, VMS, and others, spanning a range of 16- to 64-bit +architectures, from PDA's to S390's. + +Metakit is in use in various commercial projects and products on +millions of desktops. + +This script builds libmk4, Mk4tcl (bindings for Tcl) and Mk4py +(bindings for Python) +If Mk4Py is not desired, the user may set WITH_PYTHON to "NO", e.g.: + WITH_PYTHON="NO" ./Mk4tcl.SlackBuild + |
