sqlpp11
A type-safe embedded domain specific language (EDSL) for SQL queries and results in C++.
What is sqlpp11?
sqlpp11 is a type-safe SQL template library for C++ that acts as an embedded domain specific language (EDSL). It allows developers to construct SQL queries using C++ syntax, with compile-time validation for errors, and interpret results as strongly-typed C++ structs. This approach eliminates many common runtime SQL errors and provides a more intuitive interface for database interactions.
C++ developers working with SQL databases who need robust, type-safe query construction and result handling, particularly in projects where runtime SQL errors are costly or where database schemas are stable.
Developers choose sqlpp11 for its rigorous compile-time error checking, which catches SQL syntax, type, and name errors before execution. Its vendor-neutral core with database-specific connectors offers flexibility, and its EDSL design integrates SQL seamlessly into C++ code, improving safety and maintainability over traditional string-based queries.
