Daffodil Software Limited( http://www.daffodildb.com ) is proud to
announce the release of v3.3 of its Java™ RDBMS - Daffodil DB. In
addition to several performance enhancements, Daffodil DB v3.3 offers
newly added features such as:-


1. Support for 'Read Only' database - This will enable the developers
to bundle their products/applications on Read Only media like CD-ROM.

2. Multi line comment support in SQL statements - This feature will
help the developers to make multi-line comments, for future reference,
at critical points in SQL while developing an application.

3. Full text search - This is based on the ANSI Structured Query
Language (SQL), which is a standard interface language for accessing
databases. Daffodil DB supports rich text retrieval without
compromising on the format of the text. Daffodil DB's full-text search
enables you to not only search a table by specifying required columns,
but also specify the search criteria thereby enabling search for
specific words or phrases.

Beside the above features, certain provisions have been made which
will further enhance the performance of Daffodil DB. These include:

1. Using 'Index in Joins' involving scalar functions in Join
Predicates, and
