The gnome-db.org website is being rebuilt using a wiki, it will have more documention as time goes on... > For a regugee from the other side - with years of experience coding > database aps in Visual Basic and CBuilder - can someone tell me > > 1. how to get the database widgets in the widget selection window > 2. how to get started - eg make a connection to a database, create > tables etc (though that might be easy if the GUI part works) > If you download and install libgda/libgnomedb version 1.99.1, you'll get in libgnomedb's sources a demo application which shows how to use various widgets, it's in extra/demos. Just run it and test some widgets by double-clicking on a test name. It is self contained as it uses a local SQLite database. You can see the code used for each widget, and you can see the code to open a connection and create a distionary in the main.c file (in the main() part, the rest of the code is to create the main window and has nothing to do with libgda/libgnomedb).
