| Description: | The EWDB_API_LIB is the C API that provides access to the Earthworm Database system. The API provides read and write access to the EW DBMS. It provides a means for application developers to access the data in the DBMS without having to learn how to interact with Oracle. All access to the Earthworm DBMS must be done via this API. This is done in order to limit both the code that writes data to the DBMS, and the amount of code that interacts with the internal structure of the DBMS. Currently, the only API Available is in C, so to interact with the DBMS programatically you must have a way of calling C functions. Unless otherwise specified, all time measurements are assumed to be seconds since 1/1/1970. |
