[ANN] go-ase: an open source ASE database driver for Go

[Chris Burkert]

Dear all,

we would like to announce go-ase, an open source ASE database driver for Go. It is delivered as Go module. ASE is the shorthand for Adaptive Server Enterprise, a relational model database server originally known as Sybase SQL Server and nowadays part of SAP. go-ase currently contains one implementation in cgo in the directory cgo. A pure go driver is planned.

As it's the first release, please expect plenty of rough edges.

Dear all,

In addition to the cgo based ASE SQL database driver for Go we recently published a pure Go driver. Both are delivered as Go modules. ASE is the shorthand for Adaptive Server Enterprise, a relational model database server originally known as Sybase SQL Server and nowadays part of SAP.

We are happy about any feedback before we tag both drivers as version 1.

2: https://github.com/SAP/cgo-ase - the cgo driver which wraps the existing C-libraries to connect to an ASE

Please don’t hesitate to raise issue in the respective issue trackers.
