Frequently Asked Questions
Turbo Database is a very fast and compact 32 bit database kernel that has proven to fit the needs of application programmers over the last eight years. In the current version 4.0 the Windows DLL has about 0,5 MB and can be stripped down to less than 400 kB. It does not need any configuration but a simple text file, so it can be installed by just copying the file. This feature makes it an ideal solution for Web applications, that are to run on a remote Web server only available via ftp. Turbo Database is available for Windows and Linux platforms. The latter is scheduled for September 2000.
Some technical data:
Turbo Database offers the following types of table columns:
Column have to be valid identifiers. That means they may contain up to 40 characters, digits and the special characters _ and -. The first character of a column name must not be a digit. Spaces are not allowed but German umlauts are. To illustrate these rules we show a list of examples of valid and invalid column names.
Valid column names are:
Name Age Straße Avarage_Duration Date-of-birth Address8 Lösung
These are examples of invalid column names:
No of Items (spaces not allowed) Very_long_name_exceeding_the_40_characters_limit (48 characters is too long) 3645 (first character must be non-digit)
