I'm not so affirmative. I just noticed xAlterVIew isn't present in Mysql or PostGreSQL part (according to Opengrok) but I didn't test editing a view on these DBs. About your 2 last comments about missing code, the problem is Base has only 1 core dev (Lionel) + Tamas whereas it's a big part. Indeed, Base has more dependencies than other LO components: - external drivers of DBs - external package for reports (JFreereport) - Java/JNI Moreovover every feature for pivot DB (hsqldb and soon Firebird) should ideally work for other DBs. It's not sot easy, just consider migration part from hsqldb to Firebird. Also some DBs types can only be tested on specific envs (Macab on MacOs) In brief, as long as Base doesn't attract more devs, I think the situation won't evolve a lot. It may explain why some people would like to remove Base from LO. (I don't know if it's still the Tor's opinion, see <a href="https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2011/07/21/developer-interview-tor-lillqvist/">https://blog.documentfoundation.org/blog/2011/07/21/developer-interview-tor-lillqvist/</a>) Sorry for this long digression.</pre> </div> <hr> You are receiving this mail because: <ul> <li>You are the assignee for the bug.</li> </ul> </body> </html>
