Subject: more Squeak exploring and Dolphin, Magma, Omnibase

Hi Subbu,

I'm plowing along in the Smalltalk / Squeak .. and now Dolphin jungle :)

http://www.object-arts.com/content/navigation/products/dce.html

If you haven't heard of it, they have a really nice free version with very good DOCUMENTATION, that I've been using along with Squeak to try to get up to speed.

I've been trying to figure out Magma and Omnibase in Squeak, as I'm trying to get database connectivity working. Have you done anything with databases in Squeak? I'm very frustrated with the lack of docs for both of those db, about to look for other ones or more info on maybe the Squeak mailing list.

Dolphin has a nice implemantion of WELL DOCUMENTED api's for database connectivity that works out the box. I have it working with ODBC -> mdb (access databases), but am having a problem with MYSQL ... something to do with my user / host combination. I can connect fine through comand line tools or PHP scripts, but the Dolphin stuff seems to be adding my "real" host (i.e. "internet connection" instead of localhost. Any idea of what the problem might be ?

ttyl

Mike
