DBXTalk: Smalltalk Relational Database Suite
1 like904 views
The document discusses DBXTalk, an open-source relational database access solution for Smalltalk. It includes OpenDBXDriver, which provides a common API for various database backends. GlorpDBX acts as a glue layer between Glorp and OpenDBXDriver. DBXTools and DBXBrowser provide scaffolding and a UI for database interaction and visualization. The current state includes a released OpenDBXDriver and ported Glorp. Future work involves improving the tools and adding backends.
