[erlang-questions] How to use Mnesia Database from C/C++/Java ?

[Søren Hilmer]

There is/used to be, something called Mnesia Session for doing exactly this.

I do not however see the documentation for it in the latest release, tehre
is something here
http://www.erlang.org/documentation/doc-5.0.1/lib/mnesia_session-1.1.3/doc/html/part_frame.html

But if that is the latest I am not sure.
