Working on a school project, the program is supposed to read from a text

  • 0

Working on a school project, the program is supposed to read from a text file that has a record about a song in every line, fields separated by “;”.

Anyways I have no knowledge of databases, and I just want the quickest way to create a database from that text file, and also i will need to change some of the fields of the records once in a while from the program… Also the program needs to search through the database based on certain fields.

Anyways so far all our projects didn’t keep a database, so when we closed the program, every info was gone, now i actually need to keep some info for the next time the program runs. What’s the fastest way to accomplish this?

Also I wanna be able to keep some info about the software, like the path of the original text file for weekly updates. Where can i save info like that?

EDIT: it doesn’t have to an actual database, as long as i can search and edit it efficiently.

    If you can use SQL database, I’d suggest simple file-based database SQLite
    With SQLite, you can query, insert and update records by executing regular SQL statements.

    Here you will find introduction to C++ interface It’s easy to embed SQLite support in an application because SQLite comes as a library, meaning a bunch of header files and 1-2 binary archive with library.
