With Gambas2, you can quickly design your program GUI, access MySQL or PostgreSQL databases, pilot KDE applications with DCOP, translate your program into many languages, create network applications easily, and so on... A couple of notes from the packager: - The subpackaging is done a little... uniquely here, because of the nature of Gambas2. The IDE actually lets you generate RPMs for the code that you write, and it uses these subpackages for dependencies. - The examples/ directory needs to be world-writeable, or the IDE examples functionality doesn't work at all. It is purposefully owned by "nobody" to minimize any possible security concerns. - Network based components don't quite work right on x86_64 yet, but given that the previous version of Gambas didn't work at all on x86_64, this is a big step in the right direction. Upstream hopes to have this resolved by 2.1. - Doesn't work on PPC, or any other big-endian arch. - Only intended for F9 or higher targets (aka, this won't build right on F8 or older). -- Configure bugmail: https://bugzilla.redhat.com/userprefs.cgi?tab=email ------- You are receiving this mail because: ------- You are on the CC list for the bug, or are watching someone who is. _______________________________________________ Fedora-package-review mailing list Fedora-package-review@xxxxxxxxxx http://www.redhat.com/mailman/listinfo/fedora-package-review
