My experience is that you have to have a dedicated lib for a special
database to retrieve or manipulate data in a database.

Most databases have a 'embedded C-SQL' that  allows you to use
SQL-statements
within a C-source to do requests to the database.

I've seen this implementation together with a server-backend process that
handles the requests you do from your application.

Further SQL does not have to do anything with the physical layout of a 
database-file; its only a language to do queries to a database.

Therefore I'm in dout that you would be successful in getting a public
domain
package that works with any database of your joice.


Regards,

Thomas
