python HTTP / XML MS-SQL 2000 database access - v0.1 released. http://sourceforge.net/projects/pyxsqmll (damn, even i have trouble spelling it. stupid name. whoever picked that?? :) version 0.1 uses HTTP Basic Authentication. Your Microsoft SQL 2000 and IIS Server can be configured to require user / password access. btw, the htmlxmlsql2000 module has exactly the same format as MySQLdb 0.3.0 (with a couple of features and functions removed, because i was in a hurry to get this working!) in other words, other than the differences in the SQL statement interoperability (such as SELECT IDENT_CURRENT('tablename') instead of SELECT LAST_INSERT_ID()), you can replace the module name MySQLdb in your code with the module name httpxmlsql2000db and expect it to work. dependencies: - py-xml-0.6.4 (0.6.2 is known to work, too) - python 2.0 (other versions not tested) - MS SQL 2000 (we didn't bother trying with SQL-7, just upgraded) - MS IIS Server with the SQL-2000 XML isapi component enabled. python r0kz! luke ----- Luke Kenneth Casson Leighton ----- "i want a world of dreams, run by near-sighted visionaries" "good. that's them sorted out. now, on _this_ world..."
