Hello All, I am using MiddleKit in an open source application and as most projects go it is expanding and evolving, and the database structure is evolving with it. So now I have a requirement to provide a convenient upgrade path for users that includes database schema changes. MiddleKit is wonderful for doing a fresh install... but not so much for upgrading an existing install. I've researched the archives and wiki and found the references to mysqldiff. Unfortunately I can't guarantee that other users are going to be using MySQL so the resulting SQL might not be portable. I'm thinking I might have to write something to use the MiddleKit.Design internals to generate the appropriate SQL for the appropriate database. But before I delved into that I thought I would ask the community if anyone has dealt with this situation before, or perhaps a better suggestion about how to go about it. -Seth -- Seth Remington <[email protected]> ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
