Haven't messed with either ODBC or DTL under Linux. For that matter, I've not messed with either under Windows -- I use OLE DB there. Since I've not even heard of DTL, do you have any references handy?
The other programmer has substantial code using Qt so migration to another DBMS interface may not be an option. I will try to look into it though, especially since I'm so unimpressed with Qt's support as it is. I'm all for anything that saves me work and time (so long as it doesn't sacrifice performance or maintainability).

Well, there were a lot of problems with the 2.9x compilers. The 3.x compilers are much better. > As for Qt reinventing the wheel, I agree completely.

Not really. ODBC is very easy to use and wrap. Have you looked at the DTL as well?
