I'm just starting to work on a logging library that everyone can use to keep track of any sort of system information while the user is running our application. The simplest example so far is to track Info, Warnings, and Errors. I want all plugins to be able to use this feature, but since each developer might have a different idea of wh...
Hi, I was kinda puzzled by seeing that most hosting plans do offer, say, 12.000 MB disk space and 60 MB Database space... what is the difference between this two and what do I do if I need like a few gigs for a database and only some tens of MB for the rest of the site? ...
I would like to have multiple users that share the same tables in the database, but have one auto_increment value per user. I will use an embedded database, JavaDB and as what I know it doesn't support this functionality. How can I implement it? Should I implement a trigger on inserts that lookup the users last inserted row, and then ad...
Hi. I have a Crystal report where the data source has originally been set to use ODBC connections. Now I want to modify the data source to instead use OLE DB instead of using ODBC. How do I replace the data source connection without breaking the database fields which I have originally set up for my report? If I try to delete the orig...

If one has a number of databases (due to separate application front-ends) that provide a complete picture - for example a CRM, accounting, and product database - what methods are available to centralize/abstract this data for easy reporting? Essentially, I'm wondering if there is a way to automatically pull data from multiple databases ...

However I do have a copy of 'Cocoa Programming for Mac OS X 3rd edition' by Aaron Hillegass, which I am working through and using as a base, if anybody has a copy I am using the 'AmaZone' exam...

I can't find much on the initializeDB() method, but if I could get some help I would really appreciate it. Below is the code being used for the intializeDB() method: private void initializeDB() { try { // Load the JDB...
I am working on a database project and the entire team is working within Visual Studio. I created a database project, and I suppose I was hoping that I could utilize UML diagramming (or something along the lines of MySQL Workbench) so that I could "design" my database, and then auto-generate scripts. Unfortunately, at least from my cur...
Hello, I'm designing a few applications that will share 2 or 3 database tables and all of the other tables will be independent of each app. The shared databases contain mostly user information, and there might occur the case where other tables need to be shared, but that's my instinct speaking. I'm leaning over the one database for all...
Hello! I'm looking for a little database design advice... I have a spreadsheet with a few columns in it. Column 1 being a list of categories and the rest being related categories(to the category in column 1). I'm trying to figure out what the best way to setup the tables would be... My thought so far is to have a table that just lists...
I'm trying to weigh the pros and cons of a database design, and would like to get some feedback as to the best approach. Here is the situation: I have users of my system that have only a few required items (username, password). They can then supply a lot of optional information. This optional information continues to grow as the syst...

How can i programmatically get the names of all tables in a JavaDB database? Is there any specific SQL-statement over JDBC I can use for this or any built in function in JDBC? I will use it for exporting the tables to XML, and would like to do it this way so I don't miss any tables from the database when exporting. ...
