Re: informix as backend?

[Bastiaan Bakker <Bastiaan.Bakker@lifeline.nl>]

Hi,

We're working on a backend for our Oracle based user database. The user
data is stored in a simple table containg user ID, attribute name and
attribute value. A simple prototype has been built using CORBA and Java /
JDBC: A generic CORBA backend sends the request to a Java server with a
CORBA interface, which translates the search query to a SQL statement.
The Java server sends this stament through a JDBC connection to the
database.
Let me know what your plans are, it might be interesting to join (part of
the) efforts.
