I would like to announce the first release of PyGDA, a python extension mod= ule for the GNOME Data Access data abstraction library. PyGDA is released under the GNU Library General Public License. The module is still very much in an early alpha stage, and this release is mainly meant to get feedback from adventureous application developers.

The module does not wrap all of libgda yet; none of the reporting features are supported yet and parts of the main functionality haven't been wrapped yet either. However, I have been using it for over a month in a program that is supposed to be taken in production within a few weeks, with no problems. (which could perhaps in part be attributed to the fact that the program only performs SQL SELECT queries on a data provider and does not do any writing; then again, maybe not :)

PyGDA needs Python 2.2 or higher, libgda 1.0.2, and PyGTK 2 to build. To run, it doesn't need pygtk but it does need the gobject module from pygtk.

PyGDA 0.0.3 is available from http://people.debian.org/~mechanix/pygda-0.0.3.tar.gz and a detached gpg signature from http://people.debian.org/~mechanix/pygda-0.0.3.tar.gz.asc (my key can be retrieved from keyring.debian.org)

Regards,

Filip
