Database Guide
The next several chapters explain how to use Smalltalk tools to perform
database operations. They include the following topics:
- A brief tour of the Smalltalk classes for creating database applications
- Instructions for accessing your database management system and binding to
your database
- How to create and delete databases and tables
- Step-by-step instructions for querying databases using VisualAge and IBM
Smalltalk database classes
- Tips for handling errors, ensuring row schema consistency, binary data
limits, and intercepting SQL 000 codes
The database classes can be divided into four categories: base
classes, classes for defining database resources and operations, classes for
manipulating database data, and classes for using database data
links.
