Xsql

Please note that the content of this book primarily consists of articles available from Wikipedia or other free sources online. XSQL combines the power of XML and SQL to provide a language and database independent means to store and retrieve SQL queries and their results. XSQL is the combination of XML (Extensible Markup Language) and SQL (Structured Query Language) to provide a language and database independent means for storing SQL queries, clauses and query results. XSQL development is still in its infancy and welcomes suggestions for improvement (especially in the form of patches). Currently, the XSQL project has a DTD (Document Type Definition) to define the structure of an XSQL document and researchers are currently working on modifying the XML Generator, DBI Perl module to be able to parse XSQL documents and provide a tree- and event-based API (Application Programming Interface) to their elements.
