mailbox number from the Mysql database for sendming mail to a voicemail user. I
have seen vmdb.sql file but is not able to determine its use.<BR></DIV></DIV>

libs<BR>> are GPL.</DIV>

<DIV>I would be more than happy to help write a DB "Virtualization" function for
*.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>I *love* the way it works in Java, but that's not a real possibility.
It wouldn't need to be as complicated as JDBC but it's a nice model.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>We could however:</DIV>
<DIV>1) Abstract out the schema from the database calls</DIV>
<DIV>2) Develop a "pluggable" driver interface to translate to whatever DB
you're using.</DIV>
<DIV> </DIV>
<DIV>This way... You want MySQL, you develop a "translation driver" that
maps * db calls to MySql. (fairly trivial)</DIV>
<DIV>Same for Postgres (I'd suggest making this the default, as no GPL
issues for mark, etc.)</DIV>
<DIV>Same for Oracle, etc.</DIV></DIV></BODY></HTML>
