Would you please tell me, what would be my choice if I wanted to interact with MySql and Oracle from a Haskell program on Solaris?

If you want to talk to MySQL, you have a few choices.
HDBC has an ODBC interface that lets you use any ODBC provider, so you'll be able to talk to both MySQL and Oracle with it.
HaskellDB can bridge to HDBC, I believe, so that will let you do type-safe SQL.
There's also Takusen, which can talk to Oracle, but not MySQL.
Yes, thanks. But the emphasis was on Solaris. I don't quite understand what is the common way to access databases on Solaris. Is it odbc? And how Haskell libraries connect to that? I mean, Takusen is designed to use odbc and nothing else (afaik), for example. Maybe somebody has a successful exprerience of that?
