Description
The Database Tool is a module for the Web-based Education project, funded by Department of Scientific and Industrial Research (DSIR), Government of India(GOI), being developed at Indian Institute of Information Technology, Allahabad (IIIT-A) and Aptech Education Ltd. The Web-based Education project aims at providing the customer with complete control over his needs for creating and deploying a web-based education system.
This module is part of the authoring system. The content created by this tool will be saved as an XML file and thus can be read and understood by anyone. Therefore, the tables created by this tool are highly portable. The other editors can simply import the file using the Database class written by me. This class provides complete abstraction over the XML file and lets you manipulate the database, i.e. the XML file, in a standard way.
