The purpose of the example is to demonstrate use of the IBX Services API rather than to provide a practical database administration tool. As regards database administration, using the Services API alone, has not kept pace with the way that Firebird has been developing – for example in the use of virtual tables to access system information. The Database Administration tool presented in ibx/examples/DBAdmin uses virtual database tables wherever possible and the Services API only when it has too. The result is arguably a much “slicker” tool. |
