: Also the same line should be commented out in postgresql_create.sql script, which is being used to create tables in the database 'test':

set sql_mode = concat(@@sql_mode, ',ANSI_QUOTES');

: After activating the connection, the database is locked.
 
: In MySQL, the storage engine is set to a transactional safe engine such as  [http://www.wikivs.com/wiki/MySQL_vs_PostgreSQL#MySQL:InnoDB InnoDB], whereas PostgreSQL has a single built in engine. So, changes needed to be done to this script:
 
::
 
<source lang=java>
 
create table test.Account(
 
    id binary(16) not null, contactId binary(16) not null, account Type varchar(16) character set utf8 not null, funds double null,
 
    constraint Account_PK primary key(id)
 
)engine=innoDB;

PostgreSQL Adapter for NexJ

Project Goal

Develope an adapter to enable NexJ Express model to interact with PostgreSQL database

Current Status

Project Phases

Phase 1: Investigation

  • Get requirements from NexJ (Meeting on Friday Nov 5th)
  • Walk-through the code
  • Familiarization with PostgreSQL

Phase 2: Connect to PostgreSQL

Phase 3: Test first design

Phase 4: Test properties specific to PostgreSQL

  • Add test cases that are specific to PostgreSQL database

Phase 5: Optimization

  • After implementation is done, optimizing the modified files.

Resources
