Thanks for the pointer. I have been trying to follow normal conventions but it's a little unclear. This clarifies it a bit. But unixodbc is an unusual case: 1. It does not support findlib 2. It provides a library 3. It provides a standalone GTK application, Biniki, that is a sort of SQL monitor 4. It provides a standalone text-mode SQL monitor I've got some preliminary packaging going. But OcamlODBC seems to be somewhat limited in a few areas; I am going to look into packaging Perl4Caml and the Caml DBI interface next. -- John -- To UNSUBSCRIBE, email to [EMAIL PROTECTED] with a subject of "unsubscribe".
