Before you ask what retepTools are, they are my personal suite of utilities.
|
|
About 90% of them are JDBC related (either they use JDBC, or I use them in
|
|
developing the JDBC driver).
|
|
|
|
Now, because of various reasons I won't go into now, in January 2001 I decided
|
|
to release the entire lot to the public. I could have used something like
|
|
SourceForge, but as they are mainly JDBC related I thought here is the best
|
|
place.
|
|
|
|
Now all (bar retepPDF, see end-note) will over the next few months be going
|
|
into the /contrib/retep directory. They range from simple XML Inport/Export
|
|
classes to entire sub-systems that can be plugged into applications.
|
|
|
|
All this lot were never released, so I'm placing them under PostgreSQL's
|
|
licence.
|
|
|
|
Please refer to Implementation for details of what package does what.
|
|
|
|
It all requires Java2SE (JDK1.2) as a minimum. I do have some plans for some
|
|
EJB tools later, so those will need Java2EE, but not yet ;-)

retepPDF: This is not included for two reasons:
|
|
|
|
1: It's big and not really related in any way to PostgreSQL
|
|
2: More importantly, I (may be foolishly) released it some 3 years ago under
|
|
the LGPL. As a few people have added to it, it's not really possible to
|
|
change the licence, and I don't want to polute PostgreSQL's source tree ;-)
|
|
|
|
retepGraph: This was an old graphics library. It's been obsolete for 3 years
|
|
now, so it's not going in.
