Hi,
My suggestion is just to merge all "primary" libs into one single lib. Not
sharing, merging. Not a factorization, rather an addition.
Ah, okay, now I see.
Yes, this would be possible. The original idea for the drivers is to be
as independent as possible, but as lot of them already share a lot of
code (in the dbtools lib), it wouldn't hurt if they'd share a little but
more. (Looking at the PostgreSQL driver from Jörg, the advantage of
being really self-contained is: it runs with virtually every OOo
version. The disadvantage is: Jörg had to re-implement some stuff which
is available as helper elsewhere.)
I personally felt it to be very difficult to match
1) the existing helpers (which don't have a spec )
2) drivers using the existing helpers
3) the idl api spec
4) the postgresql API and postgresql database reflection model
. Understanding 3) and 4) was challenging enough ...
Bye,
Joerg
