Kexi Description

Kexi is a KDE app to potentially act as a replacement for Microsoft Access. Kexi is an integrated environment for managing data. Kexi project helps in creating database schemas, inserting, querying and processing data.As Kexi is a real member of the KDE and KOffice projects, it integrates fluently into both. It is designed to be fully usable also without KDE on Linux/Unix and MS Windows platforms (Mac OS X version planned).Kexi is also considered as long awaited MS Access replacement.Requirements:· Kexi requires KDE libraries (kdelibs) of version 3.2 or newer, and development packages for this libraries (often names kdelibs-devel or kdelibs-dev, depending on your Linux distribution).Compilation:Go to command line and type:./configure --prefix=`kde-config --prefix` --enable-debug=fullmakesu -c "make install"Notes for configure stage:* Special case: if you have downloaded (or checked out from CVS) entire KOffice source code (i.e. all koffice/ subdirectories) but want to only compile Kexi, not KWord, KSpread, etc., please create inst-apps in koffice/ directory. The file should contain names of directories you want to configure and compile (separated by spaces). For example, if you want to only compile Kexi, put (before running configure):kexiOtherwise, you may want to compile KWord and some other directories, eg. putting:filters lib kword kexi* type ./configure --help to see configure options. You may want to add --with-.... to enable some other options.* --enable-debug=full option is not required but highly recommended, because you can get more verbose error reports (backtraces) in canse of problems/crashes and send these to Kexi authors.What's New in This Release:· This service release, aside from many fixes and improvements, also brings two new features.· The first is a "Find" window that works within table, query, and form views as a global, context-dependent window.· Printing and previewing images within Simple Printouts is supported.
