Intended Audience
Because OpenROAD is intended for developers who want to create applications and database-aware applications, this guide assumes you know:
• Basic programming concepts, including the principles of object-oriented programming (OOP)
• Basic relational database management system (RDBMS) concepts, such as databases, tables, and cursors
In addition, you must be familiar with your window manager and toolkit, including terminology, navigational techniques, and how to work with standard items such as menus and dialogs. If you are not familiar with these things, see your window manager documentation before using OpenROAD.
IMPORTANT! This guide also assumes that you have read through and understand the concepts contained in the Getting Started guide.
