Have you considered perl? Lot's of wheels (books, too) to choose from there.

Hi all...

I'm about to start heavy development of an application with MySQL at the backend. However, I need some help deciding on what language to approach the project from.

What are the ACTUAL speed comparisons - JDBC vs MySQL++ ?? How is the speed of ODBC (Win vs Linux?)?

Are there any existing base classes representing MySQL's Server / Database / Table / Field / Tuple? I need a solid object-oriented MySQL programming foundation before I start hacking at the project. I would rather not reinvent the wheel if such classes already exist.

I would really appreciate any help, tips, etc. that you guys could provide.

Much thanks!
