new cvs tag - combining database drivers
Hi,

Today we tagged current cvs and started working on the combining of the
postgresql and mysql driver code - the code is practically the same and
maintaining the same stuff on different locations just isn't convenient.
We've chosen to build the new driver system upon C++. No it's not
beautiful to mix c with c++ but the coding advantages are convincing:
virtually all the methods can be implemented once, differences will
only need to be made to some specific functions and
connecting/querying/resultset methods.

just to let you know, cvs after this tag shall not be stable for a few
days.

regards roel

RE: new cvs tag - combining database drivers [ In reply to ]
Hello,

Just thought it an opportune time to mention - the most recent
patch I submitted has been very stable. Ie. the one described:
http://twister.fastxs.net/pipermail/dbmail-dev/2003-June/000171.html
It should be safe to put in now, and then if things break we'll
blame it on all the new C++ code. :)
