Hi,

Currently I develop an application that access Oracle's database using Oracle's OCCI library. The application runs on Linux and is done purely in C++.

I have now the need to connect to different DBMSs, more specifically to MySQL. Is there any tool, like ODBC/JDBC that I could use from the C++ program that would do database access in a generic way, so that I would not need to design my own database abstraction layer?

Some time ago I did a research on iODBC and unixODBC, but they relied on third party drivers to connect to Oracle. Is this still the case? Is there any way to access database generically that is supported by Oracle?

Thanks in advance,
