Say 'Hello' to Marjoree at marjoree.rubyforge.org

Release 0.0.1

Details

   Marjoree is a ruby library which has been created to provide easier access to a database.
   The main driver behind the development of Marjoree was to allow easy unit testing, and more specifically test driven development, of stored procedures.
   When combined with rUnit, Marjoree provides a suitable unit testing environment.

   Currently the only db vendor that is supported is Sybase and was developed under Ruby v1.8.5 


Running Marjoree:

   Marjoree uses ODBC to connect to a dataserver, therefore you need an (Sybase) ODBC connection setup. 
    * To set up and ODBC connection on Windows,
        Go to 'Control Panel', 'Adminstrative Tool', and select 'Data Sources (ODBC)' and enter the appropriate details of your database.


Tests Suite:

   First you will need to enter the ODBC details in marjoree\tests\all_tests.rb to allow Marjoree to connect to the dataserver.

   To run the tests suite open a command prompt and move to the 'marjoree' dir and run

	rake test


Examples:

   These can be found in marjoree\examples, again you will need to enter the ODBC connection details in each file you wish to run.
