I just started coding a GUI for PostgreSQL. I would like to hear, what you
think about that.
It will be open source. I haven't released any code yet, but there are some
screenshots at http://www.maekitalo.de/pgexplorer.html.
I code it it Qt with linux. It should compile under this so popular single
user OS too.
Dear Tommi,
This sound very ... very exciting.
Do you take advantage of Qt3 PostgreSQL widgets? Do you make use of a
database abstraction layer to be able to query (and migrate) MySQL or Oracle?
Best regards,

TIP 2: you can get off all lists at once with the unregister command
(send "unregister YourEmailAddressHere" to majordomo@postgresql.org)
Hi,
no I don't use Qt3. I use qt2 by now. I have written my own little C++-layer on top of the C-api.
Mirgrating to MySQL or Oracle would be pretty hard. The program tries to show and modify all I can get out of the systemtables. And these are very postgreSQL-specific. If I would use a abstractionlayer I doubt other databasesystems (or SQL-filesystems like MySQL;-) ) will not give me exactly these informations I try to show.
By the way - I switched the name already. I just found a pgexplorer at
http://www.pgexplorer.com. I switched to qpsql. Maybe someone out there has a better name?
I put the source online now. You can download it at
http://www.maekitalo.de/qpsql. The screenshots don't match the published version. I will make new ones soon.
