ODKit 0.1.1 Fix

This release fixes the compilation script for odkgui which stops the library creation.

Released Binaries are however unaffected.

All in all is the same as 0.1 release exept that this fix does compile.

Last Snapshot

This is the last snapshot of ODK before the final 0.1 release, current changes include:

* Proper support for PostgreSQL backend (i did a lot of debuging to get it working right and clean)
* Glade interface generated loading support with the class odkGuiLoader, which is a libglade wrapper.
* bug fixes.
* Very simple compile scripts.

But beware, is not the release code, it is still full for printf's for debuging... this will be cleaned on the release.

Project Up

Objective-C Development Kit is up and running on sourceforge, the current sources of ODK-GUI have been exported to CVS, as will the ODK-DA sources.

Note: The CVS sources are the development branch, may have the latest features (wich may be unestable) that are not included on releases or snapshots.
