[Qscada-developers] QT4 and Databases Article

[wireless <wir...@ta...>]

Hello Dave Berton,

I just read you article in the Linux Journal, June 2007 issue, titled
"Asynchronous Database Access with QT4.x"

Nice job!

We are in the  process of deciding an architecture for an Open Source
SCADA system. I looked at your web site www.eventide.com and thought
that you might
have some interest in our little project www.qscada.org (currently down?).
You can also look at www.sourceforge.org and search out Qscada or look
at the
original site http://www.qt4lab.org/qt4lab/index.htm
created by the Qscada project founder Pablo Sereno.

Anyway, as an engineer with an embedded background, it's always nice to see
articles talk about asynchronous methodologies for applications that demand
low latency and a large amount of concurrent thread execution. Too often
we see
code that utilized a polling method rather than interrupt (event) driven
asynchronous code. I hope that those persons  working on Qscada will
find the article
and time to read it. I also hope that my employer will lighten up a bit, so
I have time to actively participate in the development of Qscada.


sincerely,
James Horton
