the manner described here are subject to change. The manual reflects the functionality of
the current implementation and how to work with it. This is not a final implementation an
my have bugs and functionality faults. The current state is mostly tested with Postgres
SQL – Server 8.2.9 and should work with the version mentioned before or higher. Working
with an Oracle database is not yet supported, this will be a step for the future.
