Objective:
To develop and fulfill procedure of converting of database from certain format to another, including updating client's software.
Solution:
We have created utility program that allows:
(1) reading Btrieve database structure,
(2) creating similar structure on Oracle8i OCI server,
(3) copying all data from one database to the other one.
We developed a driver on the basis of Oracle8i OCI; it works as Btrieve driver and substitutes for Btrieve driver in its old complicated software.
Platforms, Tools and Technologies
The "Btrieve to Oracle converter" was developed using MS Visual C++ , MFC, OCI . The software can work on Windows NT/2000/XP platform.
General software's abilities
- Speed of old software work after transferring to Oracle8i database is comparable to work on Btrieve database.
- There are no changes in old debugged software , excepting driver replacement .
