[Ruby-DBI-devel] Anyone done anything like an SQL "select statement maker" class?

[Stephen D. <st...@da...>]

Hi,

I'm using ruby-fltk with DBI and dbd-pg to implement a user interface for
a video recorder project.

I want to pass the browser the "bare bones" of an SQL select, and then
implement some direct-manipulation interface where the user can add and
remove columns from the displayed browser, change column widths, adjust
the "order by", "where" clauses etc etc.  Imagine something like Excel's
autofilter and other data handling facilities.

Has anyone done anything along these lines that I can look to get me
on the way?

Thanks,
Steve Davies
