Current view- MySQL+OO good?
Posted: Sat Jan 13, 2018 12:02 am
Years ago, I went down the "Use MySQL, with OO as front end" path... happily, with good results for some projects.
My OO work has been a little less active for a few years.
Doing a quick Google search on the present state of MySQL + OO was not encouraging.
I would be delighted to learn if there are OO people who, 2018, are still happy using MySQL + OO?
This would be on a Windows 10 (sigh) machine.
Apologies for raising several questions in one post... I hope it makes sense, in this case? Any and all comments welcome!
I went to mysql.com and was a little overwhelmed. I am hoping that the "MySQL On Windows" package (Under the "Community/ GPL" branch) is "the way to go" for the serious Windows home user? (https://dev.mysql.com/downloads/windows/)
At the OpenOffice.org site, found....
"MySQL Connector for OpenOffice.org"...
https://extensions.openoffice.org/en/pr ... nofficeorg
... from 2009... flagged "Not maintained", and compatibilty with OpenOffice 4 given as "Unknown". What's this all about? Do we connect to MySQL differently these days?
Thanks for whatever pointers, "pro" or "con"! forum people can provide!
