I'm pleased to announce version 4.0.9 of Libgda, which is a maintenance release of the 4.0 serie. Updating to this version is recommended since bugs and memory leaks have been corrected and it now features improved GObject introspection. Short description: ------------------------ Libgda is a (relatively small) database access library: * a wrapper like ODBC but with more features to access several database engines * a general data model to use CSV or XML files * a meta data extractor (to know all about database objects in a comman way) * comes with an SQL console application (like mysql, psql or sqlite3 consoles) * relies on GLib, coded in C, its API is easy to use Changes from 4.0.8 --------------------------- - Better GObject introspection support through annotations and better build - Corrected memory leak in SQLite provider - String escape and unescape corrections in SQLite provider - Correctly handle floats in MySQL provider - Correctly handle binary relocation on MacOSX - Corrections in the Gda-Sql tool regarding username and password - Misc. corrections: connection locking issues, honor the GDA_EASY_CREATE_TABLE_UNIQUE_FLAG flag, some optimizations - Doc. corrections - Translations: - fi (Timo Jyrinki) Tarballs are available at http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/sources/libgda/4.0 Pease note that Win32 archives are also available at http://ftp.gnome.org/pub/GNOME/binaries/win32/ See the http://live.gnome.org/ChooseLibgdaSQLite page for additionnal information about choosing between Libgda and SQLite when you need a database API.
