Santana's Tech Notes: April 2008
http://santanatechnotes.blogspot.com/2008_04_01_archive.html
Small notes about technical related stuff I do, mainly OpenBSD and Ruby. Saturday, April 26, 2008. From CVS to Git. There has been an exodus of Ruby developers recently, moving from Subversion to Git. For SCM. Being a happy CVS user, I was curious about what Git could offer for a team of one developer. After understanding the workflow used. By experienced Git users and its benefits, I started to think the other way around: why use CVS when I can use Git. Then I decided to move binpatch. Git for CVS users.

Small notes about technical related stuff I do, mainly OpenBSD and Ruby. Tuesday, February 12, 2008. Ibm db and Ruby/Informix interface comparison. A Software Engineer at IBM, recently posted in his blog an Essential guide to the Ruby driver for DB2. Which included some samples of IBM's ibm db Ruby driver. This driver supports not only DB2, but several IBM databases, Informix included. As Antonio states in his guide, it was not meant to be thorough (that's what the API reference. IBM DB: free result(stmt).

Small notes about technical related stuff I do, mainly OpenBSD and Ruby. Wednesday, December 05, 2007. Informix adapters for ActiveRecord and ruby-sequel. I have updated Rails/Informix. To implement DECIMAL support and fix a pair of bugs that prevented the generation of db/schema.rb. I'm happy to say that on its 1.1.0 release, this adapter is mostly complete - indexes is still missing - and robust. By the way, even though Rails 2.0 is out. You can take a look at some examples here. Links to this post.

Small notes about technical related stuff I do, mainly OpenBSD and Ruby. Monday, April 10, 2006. Ruby/Informix 0.1.0 released! After a month and a half of working on it, as my day job permits, Ruby/Informix is ready for its first release. The Informix adapter for Ruby on Rails will probably follow soon! Is a Ruby extension for connecting to IBM Informix Dynamic Server. Thanks to Matz for bringing the joy back to programming and IBM for maintaining this nice DBMS. Gerardo Santana Gómez Garrido.
