Brian,

I'm not sure if I did it correctly, but it did not quite do the right thing.  
It caught the extension methods, but there are a few required classes that are 
still in the ODBC branch of the Dolphincompatibility package.  Does that sound 
familiar and fixable?

Bill

I believe if you create a new package in the Monticello browser named 
DolphinCompatibility-ODBC and save it, you will get what you want. It's always 
easy to save sub packages using the more specfic category.

Bill,

I celebrate your work of bringing the dolphin near the pharo ;-)

Thanks for your collaboration,

Hello all,

I think I have the catalog (tables and field name/type given a table name) 
working.  The latest ODBC offering appears to work, but in fairness to me, it 
does not work the same way it did (some time ago) when I crossed database 
access off of my potential-show-stopper list.

Re the warnings about change of language, for some strange reason, I find it 
very easy to believe that this is a Microsoft idiosyncrasy and so I added a 
suitable #on:do: to capture the warning.  That could be bad though; better 
ideas are welcome.

The problem I had going from Linux to Windows will probably persist.  Of 
course, I would like to see the startup/shutdown system revised to make such 
things easier to get right, after which it would hopefully become short work to 
fix.

The ODBC package derives ODBCRow from IdentityDictionary and ODBCResultSet from 
Stream.  IMHO, it always seems cleaner to compose rather than inherit the 
limited functionality that the base class provides.  However, the inheritance 
is not really hurting anything here; socket addresses being inherited from byte 
arrays *is* hurting us.  I brushed up against that at one point, but was able 
to work around it.  When it gets between me and something I need, I will 
introduce an InternetAddress class and try to lazily resolve names and 
addresses, fix the printing, etc.

Bill

Subject: [Pharo-project] ODBCWarning

The porting continues...  It is getting closer to doing something.  It just 
raised an ODBCWarning about the server changing the language to us_english.  
Any ideas?  Either I do not care or should set it up front??

One thing really surprised me, and note that I might have brought this
on myself (though I think that is unlikely) by messing with startup
and shutdown: the ODBCLibrary was stubbornly clinging to the Linux
library from my home machine.  I finally used

   ODBCLibrary default initialize.

which seemed to put an end to the separation anxiety.  Is there a better fix?  
I suppose I should try this in a clean image to see if there is really a 
problem therein, but that will be a little hard to do without a lot of my code, 
almost any of which either depends on changes I have made or could have caused 
the problem.

Maybe I should ask whether some of you use ODBC on Windows and Linux and have 
no problems moving between the machines.

Bill
