Musings from The Software Underground

The wait for SQLGrinder 2 has been long, I know. So long that I decided to do an interim SQLGrinder 1 release to tide people over. What's in this new release? Well new icons for a start. These icons were originally supposed to be used for SQLGrinder 2, but because version 2 will be using a different, better icon set, I decided to replace the horrible current version 1 set with this now extra icon set. Believe me, I had no intentions of these pre-OS X 10.0 icons sticking around as long as they did, but now, they're gone. There are also some other user interface tweaks to some things that have been bothering me for a while.

In addition, SQLGrinder 1.2.7 switches from JDK 1.3 to JDK 1.4. This will allow you to use newer 1.4 JDBC drivers which didn't work before. Previous to 1.2.7, SQLGrinder was still using the 1.3 JDK that Apple maintains alongside the newer 1.4 version.

There are no code changes in this release. That work is reserved for the new version. Hopefully, however, this interim update will help hold people over until version 2 is done.
