Hi all,

I have a small corpus annotation tool and I need to add some
collaboarative annotation facilities. I haven't still decided how to
implement this (i.e. communication ammong instances of the tool in a
network or through a central server), but a quick idea is to move the
sqlite database the tool uses to store half of the information on a
server. So, is tdbc an alternative for this?

ActiveTcl seems to contain the package, but I am not sure if any drivers
are contained. Has anybody uses tdbc in an application?

I was never able to get the Linux/UNIX port of tdbc to work at all. And
could not compile it either. I use snodbc.kit instead. I just needed
to 'patch' the kit I have to properly handle the fact that I have a
x86_64 system and the .so files in the snodbc.kit I have are i386 --
I'm building my starkits with a 32-bit tclkit and use the i386 version
of the unixODBC and various db-odbc driver libraries. Oh, and sqliteodbc
is available (I'm using it with one application).

The core tdbc is in AT 8.6 beta, and drivers will follow soon in the
teapot (within the next couple of weeks, maybe sooner).
