| The DAME Primer: DAME - Database Access Made Easy | ||
|---|---|---|

DAME is an open source project. There are multiple ways in which DAME can be extended. Few of the future directions I can think of, I will list here.
Support for more databases. Currently DAME supports Oracle™, Postgresql. DAME support for MySQL is being worked upon. There are other databases out there and DAME can be extended to support those databases.
Support for other databases is easy. We need to implement the interfaces DatabaseIf and RecordSetIf and DAME can also be used for that database.
Support for more languages. Java support on the way. It is possible to extend DAME to support other languages as well C, C# etc.
Once the SQL rewrite engine (see earlier chapter) is ready, the usefullness of DAME will increase. Then the mapping databases becomes critical and focal point for DAME
