I continue to be amazed at how you quietly listen and deliver, Vladimir!

Indeed. Extraordinary.

So cool Vlad - you and your team are busy, busy that is for sure!

My questions for clarification from that 8.3 list:

will Aware then allow the use of GUID for the ID now - sounds like it is?
Will the handling of "External Databases" change with the the database sequence change?
I do not see anything regarding possible built in handling of run-time attribute properties change via code in the rules or something like that - or maybe it might be part of "More..."

Thanks!

1. will Aware then allow the use of GUID for the ID now - sounds like it is?

No, it will not use GUID, it will use database sequences to generate ID's (see CREATE SEQUENCE command in SQL Server or Oracle)

2. Will the handling of "External Databases" change with the the database sequence change?

3. I do not see anything regarding possible built in handling of run-time attribute properties change via code in the rules or something like that - or maybe it might be part of "More..."

We are still thinking on how to do this - it's not easy. Maybe it will be part of "More..."

Thanks for the responses Vlad - Arnold

Vlad, you say it will be demonstrated at the conf. Do you have an estimate as to when it will ship?

(also, am very curious about #12 on the list!)

It will probably be released soon after the Conference. Do you have any specific wishes regarding #12?

Bruce desires for his complex queries, that he spends time indenting and adding carriage returns to start on new lines, would not get jumbled all back into one long string making it incredibly hard for him to read, and to wish that he never had to touch damn computers ever again

Please consider it to add #5 for #10 in #12 based on link above.

Thank you

Maria DB and MySQL do not support database sequences, unfortunately

Vlad,

Didn't weblike just provide the link to for supporting sequences in the previous post (its supported in v10.3).

Or is this something entirely different?

Oh, yes, sorry, this is good news. I guess, MySQL will have to catch up
