project in c

[madhura]

Hello everyone,
I have a problem regarding project.We are supposed to do one database
related project. There is no team. An individual person is the only
team.I dont want to the same business
applications, all that inventory,sales order systems, hospital
management or hotel management stuff. I have 2/3 live projects in hand.
But I want to do something different, means I want some different topic
other than those mentioned above. I would like to do the project
with,at the back-end -Oracle, main processing will be in C and GUI in
VB. The duration to complete the project is 3 months.
Can anybody suggest me some ideas, topics, something different.
Thank you
Madhura

In other words, you're an army of one.

Two thirds of a live project? Okay ...

Here are some points to ponder:
1) How is your C front end communicating with your Oracle back end?
(Tossing VB aside, as it is the COBOL of the 21st century.) Are you
using something like Oracle Pro*C, which is a SQL
preprocessor-type-thing?
2) Sometimes it's easier to write GUI code in C++, which tends to work
better with C anyway. (Hint: http://www.wxwidgets.org/)
3) I can't make your mind up about what type of project you want to do.
Maybe wxWidgets would get you inspired.
