Could you try with the patched configure.in with the attached patch? > Apart from that I got it all compiled just fine.

Is it correct that fewer providers are included than in the older versions? Or are my database libraries no longer properly detected? Yes, for now only the SQLite, PostgreSQL and MDB providers are fully functionnal, with MySQL close to being. However writing providers should now be simplified as many support functions have been added in Libgda. Regards, Vivien
