The C-JDBC project is hosted by ObjectWeb at the following URL: http://c-jdbc.objectweb.org/. To facilitate the development, a C-JDBC project has also be created on the ObjectWeb Forge facility (the ObjectWeb Consortium's own installation of GForge). The main project page can be found at: http://forge.objectweb.org/projects/c-jdbc/.
There is also a Wiki for the C-JDBC project at the following URL: http://wiki.objectweb.org/c-jdbc/. You can share ideas and information there. You can also comment on the design of the code, bring new concepts and ideas ...
Two mailing lists are currently available for C-JDBC. Both lists are archived for public review at the C-JDBC's Web site.
<c-jdbc@objectweb.org> is the user mailing list. It is the source to get the latest information about C-JDBC, send your feedback and get support from the C-JDBC community.
<c-jdbc-commits@objectweb.org> is a developper mailing list that reports every commit in the C-JDBC CVS repository.
Feedback is crucial to improve C-JDBC. Please send us your comments or any other form of input to: <c-jdbc@objectweb.org>.
The ObjectWeb Forge C-JDBC project page provides support for bug tracking. We strongly encourage you to use the automatic Report feature (see Section 6.3.3, “Report”) that provides all the details we usually need to figure out what happened. If you cannot use this feature, please include the following information when reporting a bug (when applicable):
The C-JDBC driver and controller version.
The XML file you used to configure the C-JDBC controller.
JDK vendor and version (example: Sun JDK 1.3.1_06). If you use different JDK for driver and controller, please give as much detail as possible.
OS vendor and version (examples: Linux 2.4.19 or Windows XP®). If you use different operating systems for clients, controllers and backends, give the appropriate information.
Database backend version and driver (example: MySQL 4.0.8 Linux with mm.mysql driver 2.0.14).
Detailed error description with possibly the exception stack trace or a logging trace with debugging enabled.
C-JDBC is an open source project and welcomes external contributions. Please read the C-JDBC Developper's Guide and join us!
Basically, any feature you need but you do not find implemented in C-JDBC may become a contribution topic. Simply send your ideas, documents and developments (if any) to the <c-jdbc@objectweb.org> mailing list. You may also wish to get involved in an already undertaken work. The list of hot topics is available at the C-JDBC's ObjectWeb Forge site. Please use also the ObjectWeb Forge tools for feature requests and bug reports/fixes.
You can finally subscribe to the c-jdbc-commits mailing list if you want to receive notifications of the CVS changes.
INRIA is the French National Institute for Research in Computer Science and Control. The Sardes project at INRIA Rhones-Alpes has defined the RAIDb concept and leads the C-JDBC project developments.
The goal of the ObjectWeb Consortium is the development of open source distributed middleware, in the form of adaptable and flexible components. ObjectWeb components range from specific software frameworks and protocols to integrated platforms. More information on ObjectWeb and its projects is available at the ObjectWeb's Web site.
