Extending HCL OneDB™Beyond standard relational database objects, HCL OneDB™ can be extended to handle specialized data types, access methods, routines, and other objects. HCL OneDB™ includes many built-in extensions that are fully integrated in the database server. HCL OneDB™ also provides DataBlade® modules, which are packages of extended database objects for a particular purpose and that are installed separately from the database server. Alternatively, you can create your own user-defined objects for HCL OneDB™.
Creating extensionsYou can create user-defined data types, routines, access methods, and other database objects to suit your needs. You can use application programming interfaces to write user-defined routines and applications that access data in HCL OneDB™ databases.
DataBlade® Developers KitThe DataBlade® Developers Kit (DBDK) guides contain information about the tools you can use to develop and package DataBlade® modules, which extend the functionality of HCL OneDB™ databases.

DataBlade Developers Kit User's Guide

The HCL OneDB™ DataBlade® Developers Kit Users Guide describes how to use DataBlade Developers Kit (DBDK) tools to develop and package DataBlade modules.

A DataBlade module extends the functionality of HCL OneDB to handle data with user-defined routines or to handle nontraditional kinds of data, such as full text, images, video, spatial, and time series data.

These topics are written for experienced C, C++, or Java™ programmers who are comfortable writing libraries to support applications. Use these topics to develop DataBlade modules that extend your HCL OneDB database server.

If you are unfamiliar with DataBlade modules, read HCL OneDB DataBlade Module Development Overview before you read these topics.

Check the DataBlade Developers Kit (DBDK) release notes for software compatibility requirements for HCL OneDB and HCL OneDB Client Software Development Kit (Client SDK).

To use DBDK to develop your DataBlade module in a Windows™ development environment, you need to install the following software:

Microsoft™ Visual C++ 6.0
Netscape Navigator 4.0 (or later) or Microsoft Internet Explorer 4.0 (or later)

To use BladePack to package your DataBlade module with an interactive installation for Windows, you need an InstallShield professional license.
