A Storage Manager

• Language used: C++11
• Compiler used: Clang with C++11 extensions and libc++ as standard library

Project for Cmpe 321 course. A simple storage manager that can handle simple table operations with a page by page IO.

Build Process

I've written the project in C++11, so you need a compiler that's compliant with C++11. GCC 4.8 and Clang 3.4 can be used for this manner. I perdonally preferred Clang over GCC. If you want to compile the project with GCC, change the line CPP=clang++ to CPP=g++ in Makefile. The Makefile can be found in src/ directory along with the code itself.

Compiling the code

First go into src/ directory in a terminal, then use the following command to build the program:

make

After that there will be an executable file named main in bin/ directory.

Running the program

To run the program you can use make run command in src directory if you don't want to change directories. Also you can go into bin/ directory and simply run the command ./main.

Using The Program

When you run the program in a terminal, you will see a command prompt, to check out the commands' synopses and functions, you can simply enter the command help.

The commands defined in program are:

• Table Operations:
• create [table-name] [index-of-primary-key] [field-name:field-size]+: Create a table
• delete-table [table-name]: Delete a table
• list-tables: List all tables
• Record Operations:
• insert [table-name] [field-value,]+: Insert a record to a table
• delete [table-name] [primary-key]: Delete the record with primary-key from table
• update [table-name] [field-value,]+: Update value of a record in a table
• list [table-name]: List all records in the table
• search [table-name] [operator] [primary-key]: Search according to primary key
• help: Show this message
• quit or q: Quit the program
