Embarcadero Tools and FB
I’m at Delphi Day 2009 , naturally in Italy. This morning I follow an introduction session held by David Intersimone. And after some slide finally he asnwer me a last year question: “when you will support firebird?”
I saw some slide from Rapid SQL and other Embarcadero tools where there is a new item:
FIREBIRD
He showed us how connect to a fdb, insert, list, delete data with a simple grid+dbnavigator in delphi….
I suppose this is a good news!… or not?…

PowerConsole 0.7 is released
I’m happy to announce the public release of PowerConsole v0.7.
What is PowerConsole
In short, PowerConsole is enhanced python interpreter that can host user defined commands. Uses pyparsing-based grammars for user commands to translate them into python calls, so it has limited support for mixing them with Python code.
