Hi,

the attached patch adds support for evaluating SQL blocks on MonetDB.
The MonetDB client normally requires the password to be inputted on the
console. To get around this, you have to use a dotfile ~/.monetdb with
authentification data. Note that this file is ignored if you specify a
user on the cmdline. See
http://www.monetdb.org/Documentation/mclient-man-page for details.

A usage example follows.

Setup MonetDB test database and authentification data

#+BEGIN_SRC sh :results output verbatim
MONETDB_DIR=$HOME/unix/var/monetdb/demodb
monetdbd create $MONETDB_DIR
monetdbd start $MONETDB_DIR
monetdb create demodb
monetdb release demodb
cat > ~/.monetdb <<EOF
user=monetdb
password=monetdb
EOF
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
: created database in maintenance mode: demodb
: taken database out of maintenance mode: demodb

Data is returned without column names (the default return format
cannot be parsed by Babel).

#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine monetdb :cmdline demodb
CREATE TABLE foo ( bar INTEGER );
SELECT 'Table count', count(*) FROM foo;
#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
| Table count | 0 |

The parameter "-i" is required on the command line in order to use
special client commands. Also note that a newline is required at the
end if the last line contains a special client command.

#+BEGIN_SRC sql :engine monetdb :cmdline demodb -i :results output
verbatim
\d
\?

#+END_SRC

#+RESULTS:
#+begin_example
TABLE  sys.foo
\?      - show this message
\<file  - read input from file
\>file  - save response in file, or stdout if no file is given
\|cmd   - pipe result to process, or stop when no command is given
\h      - show the readline history
\D table- dumps the table, or the complete database if none given.
\d[Stvsfn]+ [obj] - list database objects, or describe if obj given
\A      - enable auto commit
\a      - disable auto commit
\e      - echo the query in sql formatting mode
\f      - format using a built-in renderer {csv,tab,raw,sql,xml}
\w#     - set maximal page width (-1=unlimited, 0=terminal width,
>0=limit to num)
\r#     - set maximum rows per page (-1=raw)
\L file - save client/server interaction
\X      - trace mclient code
\q      - terminate session
#+end_example

Have fun!

Viktor
