When programming c/c++ apps, what do most open source folks use as it's storage libraries (for example, an address book or CD list). I can't imagine writing an app that requires mysql or postgres. Storing data as XML seems like too much overhead. I saw a book on the Berkeley database that is a library that you compile against. This seems like a good solution.
My intent is to write a stupid little app for myself to re-acquaint myself with C or C++. I'd rather not output into a <x> delimited file, but use something that is more commonly found in the 'real world' and something I could learn from and probably use later. And/or something that the majority of open source apps use. Any suggestions welcome.
