GNOME-DB 0.12 and SQL-GUI(GDA) 0.2 released

[Michael Lausch <mla gams co at>]

I just released gnome-db 0.12 and gui-sql 0.2 written by 
"Rodrigo Moya" <Moya_Rodrigo/madrid_tecnologia@sinvest.es>
as it's frontend.

Download information:
gnome-db and the sql-gui are available at ftp.gnome.org and they 
are available on ftp.gams.at:/pub/gnome


gnome-db (or gda) is a client library which uses CORBA servers to
access various databases. Currently support for ODBC databases is
working. MySQL is added just now and should be ready in a short time. 

Tested ODBC databases are:
Solid <http://www.solid.fi>
Postgres (with ODBC wrapper) <http://www.postgresql.org>
The ODBC server uses the iodbc library, so that, in theory, it should
be able to use any database which provides a dynamic lankable client
library.

The sql-gui is a graphical frontend. Originally it was written for
another database library, but it was adapted to use the gnome-db (GDA) 
client library.

I'll keep my webpage about gnome-db
<http://www.lausch.at/gda/gda.html> up to date.

gnome-db (or gda for short) is general enough so that it should be
possbile to access LDAP servers, and other non-database data sources.

You only have to create the CORBA server fo the data source and it
should be possible to access other data sources as well (modulo query
language syntax differences).
