+
+
+Introduction
+============
+
+PHP's database access functions are not standardized. This creates a
+need for a database class library to hide the differences between the
+different databases (encapsulate the differences) so we can easily
+switch databases.
+
+The library currently supports MySQL, Interbase, Sybase, PostgreSQL, Oracle,
+Microsoft SQL server, Foxpro ODBC, Access ODBC, Informix, DB2,
+Sybase SQL Anywhere, generic ODBC and Microsoft's ADO.
+
+We hope more people will contribute drivers to support other databases.
+
+
+Installation
+============
+
+Unpack all the files into a directory accessible by your web server.
+
+To test, try modifying some of the tutorial examples.
+Make sure you customize the connection settings correctly.
+
+You can debug using:
+
+``` php
+<?php
+include('adodb/adodb.inc.php');
+
+$db = ADONewConnection($driver); # eg. 'mysql' or 'oci8'
+$db->debug = true;
+$db->Connect($server, $user, $password, $database);
+$rs = $db->Execute('select * from some_small_table');
+print "<pre>";
+print_r($rs->GetRows());
+print "</pre>";
+```
+
+
+Documentation and Examples
+==========================
+
+Refer to the [ADOdb website](http://adodb.org/) for library documentation and examples. The documentation can also be [downloaded for offline viewing](https://sourceforge.net/projects/adodb/files/Documentation/).
+
+- [Main documentation](http://adodb.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=v5:userguide:userguide_index): Query, update and insert records using a portable API.
+- [Data dictionary](http://adodb.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=v5:dictionary:dictionary_index) describes how to create database tables and indexes in a portable manner.
+- [Database performance monitoring](http://adodb.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=v5:performance:performance_index) allows you to perform health checks, tune and monitor your database.
+- [Database-backed sessions](http://adodb.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=v5:session:session_index).
+
+There is also a [tutorial](http://adodb.org/dokuwiki/doku.php?id=v5:userguide:mysql_tutorial) that contrasts ADOdb code with PHP native MySQL code.
+
+
+Files
+=====
+
+- `adodb.inc.php` is the library's main file. You only need to include this file.
+- `adodb-*.inc.php` are the database specific driver code.
+- `adodb-session.php` is the PHP4 session handling code.
+- `test.php` contains a list of test commands to exercise the class library.
+- `testdatabases.inc.php` contains the list of databases to apply the tests on.
+- `Benchmark.php` is a simple benchmark to test the throughput of a SELECT
+statement for databases described in testdatabases.inc.php. The benchmark
+tables are created in test.php.
+
+
