Announcements of new Firebird related products, or new releases.

rsyslog 3.11.2 (Development) with firebird support added

Leave a comment

Rsyslog is an enhanced multi-threaded syslogd. Among other features, it offers support for on-demand disk buffering, reliable syslog over TCP, writing to MySQL and PostgreSQL databases, fully configurable output formats (including great timestamps), the ability to filter on any part of the syslog message, and on-the-wire message compression. It is designed as a drop-in replacement for stock syslogd and thus is able to work with the same configuration file syntax. Of course, some enhanced features require changing the configuration file, but in general, this should be fairly easy.

Release focus: Major feature enhancements

SQLObject 0.10.0b2 released

2 comments

I’m pleased to announce the 0.10.0b2 release of SQLObject.

What is SQLObject
=================

SQLObject is an object-relational mapper. Your database tables are described
as classes, and rows are instances of those classes. SQLObject is meant to be
easy to use and quick to get started with.

OpenDBX 1.3.5 released

Leave a comment

Finally, this development release contains a prototype of an ODBC backend for the OpenDBX database access library. It’s not fully functional yet and misses the code for data retrieval but data definition and manipulation statements work. Also, the code does compile cleanly if the latest GCC compiler suite is used.

FBCopy supports generators now

Leave a comment

FBCopy is an open source command-line tool for copying and comparing
data in Firebird databases. It has the following features:

* copying data between databases (sorted by dependency tree)
* copying generator values (since version 1.70)
* comparing table fields
* comparing data (with detailed output in HTML)
* open source under MIT license
* cross platform – works on Windows and Linux
* works with all Firebird versions (tested 1.0 – 2.1)
* easy to integrate into batch jobs
* light for remote use via SSH

Version 1.70 introduces a new definition format which supports both
tables and generators, so now you can copy generator values as well.
The new version is backward compatible (i.e. it can read the
definition files generated with previous versions of FBCopy).

Linux binary in the package is compiled against FBClient 2, so it will
work with Firebird 2.0 and 2.1 (previous versions worked only with 1.0
and 1.5 servers).
