Hey, calm down. Since I am the developer of this module I want to get some things clear.
1) This module is intended to give geotools the same capabilities for image handling as ARCSDE does. 2) This module will support any jdbc database capable of handling BLOBs, additionally supporting ths spatial extensions for db2,oracle,mysql and postgis. 3) I try to keep the db design as simple as possible, otherwise supporting different databases would be a hard job. 4) I do not want to have a competition with postgrid, after finishing the GSOC project we could start a discussion how to go on. 5) Please understand that there are other companies not using POSTGIS, for my part I have to focus on DB2, postgrid would not help me. I decided to make a universal design (which is not so easy) to get part of the geotools library, giving my customers the feeling not to produce code which depends on my person. I hope to clarify the situation -- View this message in context: http://www.nabble.com/Online-tests-and-jdbc-drivers-tp17689697p17706656.html Sent from the geotools-devel mailing list archive at Nabble.com. ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Check out the new SourceForge.net Marketplace.
