iciql
=================
iciql **is**...
- a model-based, database access wrapper for JDBC
- for modest database schemas and basic statement generation
- for those who want to write code, instead of SQL, using IDE completion and compile-time type-safety
- small (100KB) with no runtime dependencies
- pronounced *icicle* (although it could be French: *ici ql* - here query language)
- a friendly fork of the H2 [JaQu][jaqu] project
iciql **is not**...
- a complete alternative to JDBC
- designed to compete with more powerful database query tools like [jOOQ][jooq] or [Querydsl][querydsl]
- designed to compete with enterprise [ORM][orm] tools like [Hibernate][hibernate] or [mybatis][mybatis]
Supported Databases
=================
- [H2](http://h2database.com)
- Support for others is planned and should only require creating a simple "dialect" class.
Java Runtime Requirement
=================
iciql requires a Java 6 Runtime Environment (JRE) or a Java 6 Development Kit (JDK).
