Libgda/Libgnomedb 3.1.1
I finally decided to make all the last weeks’ improvements to Libgda and Libgnomedb in a packaged version. New important features are:
- Virtual connections
- WIN32 port
- Relocatable installation
- Much better documentation and code examples
- New report engine
- New command line tool (interractive SQL commands)
- New experimental GooCanvas based widget
- Automatic layout if Graphviz is present
The source code is available from the GNOME FTP server:

Thank you very much for your great work! When we will see libgda and libgnomedb merged with GTK and/or GNOME?

Daniele, I’m not a big fan of “all purpose” libraries, I prefer to have specific, smaller, libraries, so I prefer to have them as stand alone project
Vivien, while I’m here I would like to thank you for all the hard work you put in libgda/libgnomedb.

Thanks!
My opinion is that Libgda/Libgnomedb could be proposed as components of the GNOME platform (probably once more stable and bug-free), not mixed with GTK+, and/or advertized as the library of choice for database access for people using GTK+ as they graphical toolkit (a bit like the SQL Module for Qt).
