Hi Donald,

I understand, thank you for clarification.

OK.

No problem.


By the way, do you have any draft or even not-finished verion of
"HOWTO Write Provider" document which you could share?
I see, there is a placeholder page:
https://fdo.osgeo.org/HOWTOWriteAProvider.html

I'm working on new probider and I feel a bit lost, so far.
I'm working hard analysing every piece of source code of FDO Core and
FDO MySQL Providerm, but it's a huge piece of code and
I feel I find myself lost quite fast ;-)

I'd really appreciate some tips about:
- how to start-up new provider
- what components and interfaces must be included and (re)implemented in
new FDO RDBMS provider

Best regards
