Hello Serge,
Your a good sport, have a sense of humor, smart and can write.
How did you manage to stay in IT?
Lets put the CTE to bed, I was only using it to make some
much broader points. The things works as advertised:)
I have been annoying people about Dataphor (www.alphora.com).
A product based on Date's outline of a future system (TTM.).
Unfortunately the concept of a table 'type' and 'variable'
is not something most ms sql users (who think net is for fishing)
are warming up too:) It uses an sql database as a respository.
I've used it with sql server but look forward to using it
with DB2 (yes you can use pass-thru queries as the result goes
thru the cli and is treated like any other table (variable).
I'm sure your plate is full but if you find some spare time
perhaps browse the site/help docs and if you download the beast
that would great. I blog about it (illustrated with relatively
simple examples to introduce the ideas) @
www.beyondsql.blogspot.com
The gentler idea is to use something like D4 as a complement
not a complete replacement for sql. Hence the emphasis on
application development where we're not necessarily updating
2 million rows:)
While I have no business connection to Alphora, I have a big
intellectual one with the general idea. Shesh, I'd like more company.
I'd love to see some impressions from a professional of your stature
(yeah somewhat brownoseish but said with sincerity :)
Thanks and best,
steve dassin
