Thanks to you both for the links to DTL and OTL, I will check them out for a comparison and respond back in a few days with comparisons. I understand the concern about RTTI. Currently, I am using "odbc_trait<>" classes to handle the mapping and binding of C types to the ODBC API at compile time, and I don't use RTTI at all. Incorporating boost.variant should be somewhat straightforward, as it basically would require another template specialization of the traits class. I wanted that extensibilty as well for clients of the library to be able to define their own bindings. (Of course things are never as straightforward as they seem... ;-) ) Tito Michael van der Westhuizen wrote:

Can you compae it with Database Template Library http://dtemplatelib.sourceforge.net/index.htm ?

Just an FYI here- I recently evaluated the DTL and it uses RTTI internally-

Thoughts on OTL?

http://otl.sourceforge.net/

I've used it a few times, and it's extremely capable.
