External access to AS3 database

edited October 2011 in AstroSynthesis General
Hello,

Is there a best practice to accessing a sector file with an external database manager like Access or any of the SQL managers? I want to be able to access and manipulate body data in an external application. I thought I saw something in the preview of AS3, but am having no luck in the documentation. I've tried the XML export, but with limited success.

Secondly, is there a data dictionary around?

Much obliged!

Drew

  • The .AstroDB files are SQLite database files. Any tool that can work with SQLite databases should be able to read/edit .AstroDB files. The schema of the db can be accessed within the database (the .schema command in the sqlite command line utility), and its also stored in the Astro3DB.ddl file.
  • Ah! Splendid! Thanks!
