Hi all. I've just done an initial release of Gtk3::Ex::DBI. This project is a port to Gtk3 of my previous projects, Gtk2::Ex::DBI and Gtk2::Ex::Datasheet::DBI ( which wre awkwardly named ).
Notable changes since the last release ( a long time ago ): - Ported everything to Gtk3 - Merged Form and Datasheet libraries into 1 project ( still lots more code factorising to do ) - Added Netezza support ( data warehouse appliance based on Postgres ) - Added preliminary Teradata support ( another data warehouse appliance ) - Improved Oracle support - Proper support for non-autoincrementing primary keys - Support for non-numeric primary keys - Form and Datasheet classes can now create a recordset toolbox, with buttons for 'apply', 'undo', insert', 'delete' and a spinner for navigating records - Dropped dependency on Gtk2::Ex::Dialogs - Support for prefixing field names ( ie with a table name, so you can have multiple Form objects in 1 window - Switched to Gtk Builder for Form objects - Added more hooks for common events ( on_delete etc ) - Lots of bug fixes and optimisations The only thing I lost in the port was some custom cell renderers, that blow up when editing begins. These aren't *critical* - just nice to have. I was doing some numeric / currency formatting before, and also moving the focus onto the next cell when editing is complete. This is currently disabled. Help in this area would be appreciated; I'm over my head here unfortunately. While being an initial public release, this should be considered quite stable. It's been used extensively in 2 major production projects over the past year or so. You can download it from: http://tesla.duckdns.org/ ... there are download links on the right, and pages for various projects and stuff. I've made a botched attempt to upload it to CPAN - I'll fix this when I figure out exactly what went wrong. Docs are a little sketchy at this point. I plan on doing some blog posts to demo stuff. Dan
