libdbi implements a database-independent abstraction layer in C, similar to the DBI/DBD layer in Perl.

Writing one generic set of code, programmers can leverage the power of multiple databases and multiple simultaneous database connections by using this framework.

The libdbi-drivers project provides the database-specific drivers for the libdbi framework. The drivers officially supported by libdbi are:

Firebird/Interbase
FreeTDS (provides access to MS SQL Server and Sybase)
MySQL
PostgreSQL
SQLite/SQLite3

The following drivers are in various stages of completion and are supposed to be included into the next release:

mSQL
Oracle

What's New in This Release:
fixed query bugs in sqlite and sqlite3
added sqlite_timeout and sqlite3_timeout options to improve concurrent write accesses
added Firebird/Interbase driver
added FreeTDS (MS-SQL and Sybase client) driver
