Chilli Source News January 14, 2003 Database Design Studio (DDS) has under gone a major rewrite to the scripting engine and improvements to the user interface. There is now total flexibility in configuring the scripts created by DDS-Lite, including the ability to create sequences and triggers to implement auto-increment columns in Oracle. We have achieved this by creating a macro language to configure the SQL syntax and now the end user can modify these macro scripts to suit their needs. In fact, you can now get DDS-Lite to create any script, exactly as you like it. We anticipate a release of DDS-Lite 2.10.0 and the long anticpated DDS-Pro (with reverse engineering) in February 2003. SQLConsole has also been upgraded to integrate with the new and improved product line. Our customers will be able to upgrade DDS-Lite and SQLC as part of the maintenance policy of Chilli Source. Pricing for DDS-Pro has not yet been finalized, but you can now register your interest with our sales team for release notification. September 20, 2002 SQLConsole Service Pack 2 is now available for download.
For a full list of added features please refer to this
popup listing.
Please note that this is a patch and not a complete setup. As such it can
only be applied to the release version of SQLC and not the trial version.
Attempting to apply it to the trial version will issue an error and the
patching will fail. We encourage all registered license holders of SQLC to
download and install this patch to upgrade SQLC to version 2.00.3. You need
to login to access the service pack.
