Connections and Cursor increment the same internal counter, so it you open a connection (id 1), send a query (id 2), and open another connection the id will be 3. > I made a typo in the path to the > database, and 1. > Revolution instantly crashed; Sounds like a bug in Valentina. They fixed this for OSX. If it crashes when specifying an incorrect path to the database query builder, please bug report it against the database query builder. In general if something has not been resolved on the list please report it to ensure that it gets fixed. One of the neat things about the new system, is that it allows us to get a quick summary or all the outstanding issues, which is useful both for the developer and the bug reporter.
