[pygtk] libgda / gnomedb bindings

[Andi Albrecht]

Hi,

it's a little bit off topic on this list, but does anyone know about
the current status of the libgda bindings in gnome-python-extras?

I've played around with the bindings these days and they successfully
build against libgda-3.0 what is what I need. But some methods don't
work... I.e. gda.Client.get_connections isn't implemented and
gda.Query.set_sql_text fails with a segfault on some queries like
"select * from foo.bar".

It would be great if the libgda bindings would be more complete and
stable. I think it's a great library and good bindings would enrich
the PyGTK world and of course they are required to have gnomedb
bindings in which I'm primarily interested in... ;-)

For the gnomedb bindings I've made some simple, mostly auto-generated
wrapper files to test the usefullness of these widgets in an
application I'm about to write. But it's obvious that they depend on
an solid libgda implementation.

So my question is: Is there some work-in-progress for the bindings?
What can I do? I'm not a C developer, but writing some kind of
boilerplate code for GList arguments should be ok if it's reviewed by
someone with more experience. Writing tests and examples in Python is
always ok.

Regards,

Andi
