My Final Year Project (started) !

I have to do my final project in order to complete my BS degree.

The project is " ONLINE DATABASE SERVER" i.e

i have to develop my own mysql database engine and then provide the web service in order to connect desktop applicationz with this online database.

I am a php developer but i have no idea or knowledge about developing a database engine.

Any help, resources, reading material, suggestions will be highly appreciated.

plz help me..

 

databases can be files in this way, give us more info and we may be able to help you.

 

ok,
here is th project proposal,

Project is to design a wizard like interface so that user can create database, create tables, add data in fields, etc.. and save all. All things will be done online
and then user can connect to there database through desktop application means front end is placed on desktop and back end database is placed online and also user can run queries like edit, select , delete etc...

i think the info is enough to understand but if u need more i will try to explain in more detial.

thanks in advance.

 

You do not have to develop your mysql engine , you can install it or else use VB as a front end , MSAcess as a back end, you have got a pretty easy final year project assignment I would say.

 

but what about the queries do i use t-sql ??? or build my own one(that's like a dream)

one thing else that is i want to work with php (as front end) and mysql as a back end i think it's possible with these technologies.

well,
thanks 4 the replyz.

 

Ok here what you do install mysql , apache , php . (use lampp or xampp)

then you wanna go to phpmyadmin and start doing a few queries and learning how to do the queries (if u dont already know) then using php make forms that execute those queries on submit .. basically making a wizard type interface fariably easy pm me if u need help

 

I guess u r trying to make a smaller version of phpmyadmin. If thats it then maybe I can help.

If i understund you right, You want to make your own Mysql Database?
If its right you need Unbuto (Linux,Unix) and so you can install Mysql database Manger from Apace on your Unix pc, And Then your done!

 

Dont even really need unix you can do it from windows ... if ur not a linux user just google xampp

 

Hi,

Building database engine is easy , like mysql store data into some files , like that you can also store data in file ... for this you have to do some R&D on read and write file functions.

Thanks

 

I think the backend you could use PHP+MySQL as you want, but the front-end (being placed in desktop) you should use Java-based application. That's better for both Windows & Linux platforms.

 

actual lovelycesar PHP is better for both windows and linux ....

all web browser output it so no desktop app needed
