MySQL

[Stephen Barncard]

I just executed this sql command "SHOW DATABASES;" on my project from 
rev and it works fine. However I use Trevor Devore's SQL abstraction 
library, which makes it far easier to make sense of the lower level 
rev SQL calls.

I know he's working on an exciting new project using 'Database 
Objects' and I expect a product someday, however for now I rely 
greatly on his database library, and have already donated twice. 
(It's free.. but it's so useful to me that I'd pay for it so I did.)

libDatabase 2.0 - Tested with altSQLite 2 and 3, MySQL, PostGreSQL, 
Valentina 1.x local. Preliminary testing done for Valentina 2.x 
local/server. Download stack, Getting Started pdf and documentation.
2.0.2.9

I'd suggest trying out his lib, it's solid and makes working with SQL 
a lot easier.
