It also provides a bunch of tools to help you both in the +development and management of your data sources, all done through +the GDA model's set of CORBA interfaces. + +libgda was part of the GNOME-DB project, but has been separated from it +to allow non-GNOME applications to be developed based on it. + +WWW: http://www.gnome-db.org/ |
