ok, I've fixed that, and now gda_connection_new receives a DSN name, and
not the connection string. Also, I've added more info to the
GdaConnection object:

const gchar   *gda_connection_get_dsn (GdaConnection *cnc);
const gchar   *gda_connection_get_cnc_string (GdaConnection *cnc);
const gchar   *gda_connection_get_provider (GdaConnection *cnc);
const gchar   *gda_connection_get_username (GdaConnection *cnc);
const gchar   *gda_connection_get_password (GdaConnection *cnc);

cheers
