Hi Marius,
Firebirdnews.org is a great site! Added it to my RSS feeds, but I
wonder why I haven’t heard of it before. You need to do more
advertising! 🙂 Do you happen to know how many readers you are
reaching?
ED:Maybe we should promote better the website , seems that now from alexa.com
stats we have a lot of hits from Italy, so we have to tune up to reach more markets 🙂
I’m glad that you included my translation of the Firebird Security
documentation, too, but I was a bit surprised to find it there without
being notified of it.
Regarding the TsSqlDatabase stuff: It’s something I’m doing for the
company I’m working at (Germany based Treesoft, see www.treesoft.de)
and it’s currently being extended by another employee. Which problems
I wanted to solve and the basic technique that I’m using to solve it
are described here:
http://daniel-albuschat.blogspot.com/2007/11/high-performance-high-usability-sql.html
The project is currently in a semi-working state. My co-worker is
working with Qt to create a searchable list-view that can handle HUGE
amounts of data with astounding user experience and without the quirks
that most SQL list implementations have.
I’m going to write up a new article on this topic with more details
maybe this weekend or next week, so stay tuned. I’ll contact you when
it is finished so you can put it up on firebirdnews.org.
This blog-post may also be an interesting read to you:

ED:also i love arora and i started to like qt , I’m not an c++ lover
but with qt I started to like it
C++ is just one of the most cleanest languages that are around
(although it has many quirks and is not what I would really call
“clean”, but it’s still “one of the cleanest”). It’s the only language
that solved the resource allocation/deallocation problem in the best
possible manner. See RAII vs. Garbage collection here:

On an unrelated side note, have you ever used Sinática Monitor
yourself? It sounds like a cool product, but I’m wondering how it
works. I have a similar project in mind that would work as a
Firebird-“Proxy” and sniff the communication between the client
application and Firebird. But Sinática even has info on server and I/O
loads, that really cool.
ED: I will try it on my ubuntu box if possible with wine
Thanks for your mail,
Daniel Albuschat
