[mdb-dev] More patches soon ...

[Nirgal V. <con...@ni...>]

Hello MDB folks

Attached are a bunch of new patches for the github repository. These are work in progress, and they assume you first merged "schema-indexes".

"ole" provide a new function called mdb_ole_read_full to easily read a full ole field, with all the chunks.
I already described it yesterday.
IMHO, the whole LVAL system should be rewrote to provide and use a unique interface. This would change the API.
How bad would that be?
Do you know any real usage for libmdb other than gmdb2 and command line tools provided?

"props" finaly works:
catalog.c read the props, table.c assign them.
prtable have been change to display them.
I want to make sure I have some feed back about ole patch before proposing it for merge...
And that code still need some cleaning.
\o/

You'll not want to merge "schema2" yet for sure, as it assumes you use postgres backend.
I include it nevertheless so you can see what we're about to get:
- NOT NULL constrainst
- Not empty constraints
- Columns comments
And soon, hopefully:
- Short date/Long date behaviour
- Default values

Attached is also an example of output...

Cheers!
