Notes about multithreading and download link

you can follow this thread about the multithreading and at the end there is an download link

for windows only for the moment
http://www.flamerobin.org/mghie/flamerobin-boosted.zip


run the included executable. It should load your current
fr_databases.conf file and show the databases in a tree.
Double-clicking a database node initiates the connection in a worker
thread. Please note that you can try to connect to a database on an
unavailable server, and continue to work with the program. Current FR
would freeze until the timeout.

Notes about multithreading

I have created a new branch in SVN with the code that I have currently
written for a multi-threaded FlameRobin, using Boost libraries.

If you are interested you can check it out from

<https://flamerobin.svn.sourceforge.net/svnroot/flamerobin/branches/fr-with-boost>

I have built it using MSVC++ on Windows, and using gcc on Ubuntu. Boost
libraries need to be installed on the machine, that can be done using
apt-get on Ubuntu, and by manually installing the latest libraries
installer from www.boost.org on Windows. On Windows the environment
variable BOOST_ROOT needs to be defined.

The code doesn't do a whole lot currently: It loads the
fr_databases.conf file and shows the databases in a tree view.
Double-click or [Return] on a database node connects / disconnects a
database. Connected databases show the lists of system tables and user
tables. These lists are populated on-demand, when the collection nodes
are to be expanded. All access to the database (API calls) is performed
in a background thread.

The most interesting (as in different from current FlameRobin sources)
code can be found in src/hierarchy (DBH uses Boost smart pointers) and
in src/engine (multi-threaded API calls).

Tests of the code and comments are very welcome.

Thanks

FlameRobin 0.8.6 is out

This is mostly a bug-fix release, probably a first ’stable’ 0.8
version without major bugs. Windows, Linux and Mac OS X binaries and
source code package are available for download. I recommend all Linux
distribution packagers to upgrade (especially if you still use 0.8.3
or lower). Here’s the changelog since 0.8.3:

New features
- DataGrid: BLOB data is now (optionally) shown in cells. Read-only for now.
- DataGrid: A basic ORDER BY clause building when column header is
double-clicked
- Support for LIST function in Firebird 2.1
- Support for MON tables in Firebird 2.1 (Read-only for now.)

Enhancements and Bug fixes
- DataGrid: FR no longer crashes when transaction has ended
(commit/rollback) and grid edit control is active
- DataGrid: Complete string is now shown for editing and copying multiline text
- DataGrid: Copy command now copies a single cell if nothing is selected
- DataGrid: Fixed mixup between BLOB ID and data it contains
- DataGrid: Fixed bug when editing or deleting in grid causes exceptions.
- DataGrid: Successfully deleted rows are deselected, so user can
easily see what is done.
- DDL extraction for GRANTs now only quotes names when needed
- DDL extraction for defaults does not use double quotes anymore.
- Database property page now shows minor ODS version when it is not zero
- Hovering over icons in privileges window, now really shows the grantor
- Improved parsing of SELECT statements
- Support for INSERT..RETURNING and EXECUTE STATEMENT that return a
single record
- Fixed messagebox flood when Execute Procedure called and it doesn’t
return anything
- Print preview and SaveToHtmlFile works again for manual and changelog
- Extracting invalid DDL (missing domain data in system tables) does
not crash FR anymore
- Silent installation (on Windows) does not show changelog window anymore
- Autogenerated domains (system domains) do not show up in the tree anymore
- Added ALTER DOMAIN action for domains
- Tree now shows NOT NULL for columns that inherit NOT NULL from domain
- Fixed parsing bug when non-reserved keyword is used as identifier
- Fixed autocomplete for selectable procedure alias when procedure
call contains parameters (in PSQL)

Gtk2 snapshot will become final 0.8.6 release

next few days.
