| [dtp-sqldevtools-dev] SQL Results Viewer modularization |
Hi, I would like to collaborate with the DTP team to make the SQL Results Viewer even better. I have posted to the forum already but I guess it was the wrong channel: Below you find the text again. What do you think ,would it make sense to perform the proposed changes? Thanks Markus forum post: Hello, First of all I would like to thank you for your work on the Data Tools Project. I work on a tool named QKDT for a proprietary database (KDB+) and in the past days I have integrated the SQL Results Viewer, which fits in nicely. Nonetheless, there were some small issues which made it necessary for me to ship with a patched version of the plug-ins org.eclipse.datatools.sqltools.results.ui and org.eclipse.datatools.sqltools.results. For more details on how the view is integrated, see http://www.markusbarchfeld.de/blog/article/2010/02/19/sql_re sults_viewer.html Some of the issues I have already filed at bugzilla last year when I was evaluating the SQL Results Viewer. Unfortunately they have not been fixed so far, although patches were attached. Now I would like to know if you are interested in making the mentioned plug-ins more generic and fix the remaining issues. I have described the already filed bugs and some newly found issues below. The amount of work on your side should be really low since I can provide you with patches. Of course I can not estimate the ramifications of the patches and maybe some of them are not as simply to integrate as I would assume. I would be really happy to get a positive feedback on my request. Of course it would be a great gain for the QKDT project but I think that the SQLTools project would benefit as well since it would further modularize the design. If you decided to support me I would file the remaining issues at bugzilla. Thanks Markus |
