Hi, no inconvenience at all ;)

I was looking to the code of "_new_from_uri" and it seems to me that the
problem is on the test "if (table)" always true just after "table =
gda_table_new(name)" in the function
"gda_xml_database_new_table_from_node()".

I wait for your new version and keep you advise ASAP.
