What is xBase MCP Server by CData?

xBase MCP Server by CData is a read-only Model Context Protocol server that enables large language models (like Claude Desktop) to query live xBase data using natural language. It wraps the CData JDBC Driver for xBase, exposing xBase tables and columns as SQL models through an MCP interface.

How to use xBase MCP Server by CData?

Clone the repository, build the JAR with mvn clean install, download and license the CData JDBC Driver for xBase, create a .prp file with connection properties (Prefix, ServerName, DriverPath, DriverClass, JdbcUrl, Tables), then configure a client like Claude Desktop to run java -jar CDataMCP-jar-with-dependencies.jar <path-to>.prp. The server communicates via stdio and must run on the same machine as the client.

FAQ from xBase MCP Server by CData

Is this MCP server read-only? Can I perform write operations?

Yes, this server is read-only. For full read, write, update, delete, and action capabilities, CData offers a separate free beta MCP Server for xBase (linked in the README).

What runtime dependencies are required?

You need Java, Maven (to build), and the CData JDBC Driver for xBase (must be installed and licensed). The driver JAR path is specified in the .prp file.

What transport does the server use?

The server uses stdio transport, so it can only be used with clients running on the same machine as the server.

How do I configure the connection to xBase?

Create a .prp file with properties: Prefix, ServerName, ServerVersion, DriverPath (full path to cdata.jdbc.xbase.jar), DriverClass (cdata.jdbc.xbase.xBaseDriver), JdbcUrl (generated using the driver's connection string utility), and Tables (leave blank for all tables).
