program testsqldb;

{ A very simple example for sqldb, written by Joost van der Sluis (2004)

  The following parameters are used, in given order:

    parameter1 = databasetype (mysql,interbase,postgresql - case sensitive)
    parameter2 = databasename
    parameter3 = tablename
    parameter4 = username, optional
    parameter5 = password, optional

  This example will only display the data for each record in the given table.
  Examples:

  ./testsqldb postgresql testdb fpdev
  ./testsqldb interbase /home/firebird/dbtest.fdb fpdev sysdba 123456
}

{$mode objfpc}{$H+}
