news 28 Posted October 11, 2009 I'm pleased to announce version 4.1.3 of Libgda, a development version which will lead to a 4.2 release. Short description: ------------------------ Libgda is a (relatively small) database access library: * a wrapper like ODBC but with more features to access several database engines * a general data model to use CVS or XML files * a meta data extractor (to know all about database objects in a comman way) * features several tools: an SQL console application (like mysql, psql or sqlite3 consoles), a graphical database browser, and a control center * relies on GLib, coded in C, its API is easy to use * optionnally includes some graphical widgets (based on GTK+) for data bound representations and some graphical tools Changes from 4.1.2 -------------------------- - GdaBrowser improvement - UI extension corrections - libgda's core improvements: better BLOB handling, better API for GdaSqlBuilder, GdaDataSelect - misc bug fixes - Translations: - de (Mario Blättermann, Christian Kirbach) - es (Jorge González) Notes: -------- * This is unstable development release. While it has had a bit of testing, there are certainly plenty of bugs remaining to be found. This release should not be used in production. * Installing this version will overwrite your existing copy of Libgda 4. If you have problems, you'll need to reinstall it. * Libgda 4.2 will be source and binary compatible with the 4.0 series. * Bugs should be reported to http://bugzilla.gnome.org.
