Firebird Driver and Embedded version merged into LibreOffice git master

Changes to libreoffice and firebird driver can be seen in the git log

And here is announcement :

Firebird has now been integrated into LibreOffice master!

It now builds on Mac and Windows in addition to Linux. (I’ve only tested on Linux but will be testing/fixing as necessary on Mac/Windows this week.)

The database driver itself is almost unusable at the moment as I’ve been refactoring various things to do with transaction control and execution of statements. More and more functionality should be appearing in the course of this week, making the driver more usable .

New Firebird site is almost ready

From Alexey Kovyazin:

Hello All,

Current data transfer from old site to the new site is almost complete. There are following areas in process:

  • In Development – QA, Documentations for developers and .NET/Python drivers
  • Old news – we will transfer old news for a while, now at 2009-2008 level.
  • In About Firebird -> Features description, is in progress
  • Grantee reports from old years
  • Some minor content adjustments

Also we need to manage setup for daily snapshot uploads.

For regular site updates, like adding news or new FF members/sponsors, dedicated person from DQTeam will manage data adding/changing, until other site contributors will learn how to use CMS.

Actual transfer and redevelopment is almost over, now web-site redevelopment is about “intellectual” re-writing and new content creatiion.

Such process will be run constantly, and there will be always gap between ideal site and good-enough site.

I ask everyone to join the action now, look through the site thoroughly, and then provide actual help in order to jump over gap and switch to the new site in the next few days, and then go to the Phase 2 – improvements and extensions.
Old site will be live for a while, of course, so no content will be missed.

Regards,
Alexey Kovyazin

#ilovefs , #ilovefirebird:I Love Free Software Campaign , I love Firebird

Today is the day when you can share your love towards Firebird and the Free Software world (libreoffice , qt , debian)
There are lots of ways to declare one’s love… Here are some ideas on how you can go public and proclaim your love to Free Software/Firebird

  • Send active Free Software supporters a message thanking them for their work
  • Microblog about how you love Free Software, and tag those messages with #ilovefs/#ilovefirebird.
  • Hug a developer (ask permission first!)
  • Buy your favourite developer a drink. Or buy someone else a drink and while savouring it, tell him/her about your favorite Free Software application!

ps whey you search for i love firebird i have this example of trim function 🙂

select trim (‘la’ from ‘lalala I love Firebird’) from rdb$database
— returns ‘ I love Firebird’

The tools we use to produce Kevora are:

    * Qt Creator or QDevelop.
    * Qt Designer.
    * Qt Linguist.
    * GCC compiler and g++ (on Linux).
    * MinGW (on Windows).
    * InstallJammer or BitRock InstallBuilder for Qt.
