Oh I see - so it is an adapter not an abstractor. I'm curious what the advantages will be over the widely supported ODBC API. Will you add ODBC support?

- kenshaw 10y agoI've already looked into adding ODBC support, and will try to add it. The real limitation here is that I am not working with a ODBC setup locally, so writing/testing anything for it is not really possible at the moment. Also, I believe all the ODBC Go driver implementations require the use of a C lib/dll, so it would need to be similar to the Oracle support and not "out of the box". The beauty of this, is that at the moment you can simply do a 'go get -u github.com/knq/usql' and have a working SQL client that is exactly the same for the 4 "natively supported" databases, and with Oracle support if you have the right local client libraries.
