Thread: Case tool
Someone posted this link to a Case tool: http://www.ccas.ru/~gurov/ftp/Editors/CASE/Vinsent/ Unfortunately it's in Russian, which I know nothing about, and it doesn't seem to have been worked upon since 1997. I don't know the strength of this tool, as I can't understand the description, but can this be the best OSS-contender with no work being done for two years?
I have contacted with author and it says he just don't have time
and he'd like to pass development to somebody. As I understand most
thing works ok but needs to be synchronized with new version of
TCL/TK, postgres and python. I didn't see any free CASE TOOL like
Vinsent which supports postgres.
Regards,
Oleg

(except references (takes time)) Plans:3 create new DBs through the broker and fill them with tables4 alter existing tables through broker5 generate GCI scriptaccording to the struture6 ctreate additional SQL generators for other DBMS7 fix the interface send all requests & complaints to: mailto:denn@unicorn.micex.ru /nop abuse please (literally "please don't spit")/ ******** translation end *********** Please no questions to me and no "curtesy copies".
