[Qgis-developer] QGIS for INSPIRE

[Bernhard Ströbl]

Hi Patrick,

I did part of what you listed in my Plugin DataDrivenInputMask (Python), 
only available for PostGIS, though. Source code and documentation are on 
github.
The plugin provides suitable widgets for any supported data type (e.g. 
date, boolean, arrays types). You might also want to look at how NULL 
values are handled (if field has no NOT NULL constraint). Furthermore 
any relation type (1:1, 1:n, n:1 and n:m) is supported.
