Updated make files for xdb_sql
The guys at idealx have done something wonderfull with xdb_sql. The makefile that comes with it however does not do justice to this wonderfull piece of software. One of the most recuring themes in jadmin newsgroup has been "help installing xdb_sql with mysql backend"
The makefile found here addresses just that. It allows xdb_sql to be installed for mysql backend out of the box. just type make.
other options are
make DB=PGSQL - compiles with postgresql backend
make DB=ODBC - compiles with odbc backend
However in case of odbc you will have to edit the make file and set the library path.
One of the common errors that is addressed by this fix is:
[alert] (-internal) :[xdbsql_config_init] cannot load backend 'mysql' [alert] (-internal) :[xdb_sql] configuration failed
