You're telling nothing new nor useful here.
Adriano, calling something "abstract bullshit" is not a particularly compelling technical argument. If you want to add something constructive to the discussion, why don't you tackle my points one by one? The code is irrelevant; the interface has to live forever. You are promoting an interface that is not efficient, incompatible with all existing applications, is alien to standard industry usage, doesn't advance the state of the art, don't follow accepted industry standards, and will not attract new developers to Firebird. It is, from all appearances, something the crawled out of the primordial ooze of a really bad idea that the client API should be the same as the plugin API. Technical issues can, in fact, be discussed with more depth than "+1". In fact, everything in engineering is a tradeoff, and tradeoffs can be reasonably balanced and discussed. But dismissing something that you don't agree with as "abstract bullshit" is never warranted. > > > Adriano > > > ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ > Want fast and easy access to all the code in your enterprise?
