Description

Module XBase provides access to XBase (dBase, Fox*) database files, namely dbf, dbt, fpt, ndx, ntx, mdx, idx and cdx. It provides native Perl interface ($table->get_record, $table->update_record) to read and write the tables. The index support is alpha and read only at the moment.

Module DBD::XBase is a DBI driver that uses the XBase module to work with the data, providing you with DBI compliant processing interface and SQL commands ($dbh->prepare("SELECT * FROM TABLE")). As an argument to DBI->connect, specify "dbi:XBase:$dir", where $dir is the directory with the data files.
