[Vtigercrm-developers] Build a vTiger Bounty Team

Thu Feb 23 23:50:55 PST 2006


I was wondering if I could get some type of "sponsorship" officially
from vTiger and allow myself and the newly created team to have a title
that would give us some sense of belonging.  I kind of think that I'm
out of place leading this movement without some sense of being official.

Regards,

Brian Laughlin

I have followed with some interest mails on this subject. Having worked
a bit on MsSQL implementation, I will say that use of adodb is probably
better. But doing so you solve multi bases installation but what you
install won't work.
You have to change the code everywhere to avoid static or dynamic
queries builds which are not compatible with other databases. I am not
experienced enough with adodb to say if GetInsertSQL, GetUpdateSQl,
GenID and Insert_ID can solve the problem.

Another way could be to implement something looking like language
support, having subdirectories for each databse and the convenient code
in them.

Having a bit of experience on Delphi and object Pascal, I could also
suggest to use a datasource object in charge of the interface between
displaying data and database access. But maybe that adodb do that
anyway.

mike is rigth that the adodb schema has advantages over sql files, but I
also understand fathi problems WRT packaging

maybe something like this can be done:

php generate_sql.php mysql > vtiger-mysql.sql

and eventually:
php generate_sql.php pgsql > vtiger-pgsql.sql

??

so all the sql files are automatically created ?

Hi,

I'd like to do a release candidate by Friday, feb 24th, so if someone
has any patches for postgres support please get them in the tracker
before Friday so it can be reviewed and integrated.

Just tried creating a database with the latest 4.2 branch as of rev 3889
and all tables are created as MyISAM tables (the ones that don't support
FK constraints and all those nice DB features).

I'm going to have to do this install with 4.2.3 for now...  Will look at
it in a bit.

Mike,

I actually have a request out right now for someone to branch 4.2 so I
can work on postgres support (I guess the request isn't all that public
though as it's hidden inside a bug report that's probably not being
read).  I don't think this is something we should try and shoe horn in
last minute as there's a pretty good chance of breaking stuff if there
isn't extensive testing.  That said most of the work has already been
done and I can probably find time tomorrow to merge everything in if
everyone is prepared for the possible issues (I would still prefer to
work in a separate branch).

I can make a branch. Though I'd like a consensus on this.

I'd also need to know the name of the branch, could call it
"4.2_postgres" or something...

Comments anyone?
