Alzabo Description

A data modelling tool and RDBMS-OO mapper Alzabo is an open source and Perl-based project with two major aspects. Alzabo is a data modelling tool that allows you to define a schema by creating tables, columns, indexes, foreign keys, etc. There is a Mason-based schema creation tool, which can be used with any web browser. This tool allows you to create and edit any number of schemas.This tool is capable of generating the SQL statements necessary to create a new schema or it can reverse engineer an already existing schema. Once you have created a schema once, Alzabo is smart enough to generate "differential SQL" in order to apply future changes.Alzabo also functions as an RDBMS-OO mapping tool. What this means is that instead of using SQL to access your database, you are given an object-oriented wrapper with which to access your data. It is quite likely that if you worked on a large database-backed project, you may used or written a customized wrapper of a similar nature. Alzabo provides the same thing, but in a generic manner, meaning you don't have to rewrite the same things over and over again. Requirements: · Perl What's New in This Release: Bug fixes: · Reverse engineering with MySQL broke when the tables were returned _without_ the schema name. · Enable subselects for MySQL, though there's still no good API for subselects. · Pass any unknown command line options through to Module::Build, for example things like "--install-base". Reported by Lars Dieckow. RT Ticket #28410. · Fix a possible bug in Alzabo::Config::available_schemas. Reported by Otto Hirr. RT Ticket #28312
