• Bakery provides default functionality, which can be easily customized.
• Bakery makes it easy to start developing gtkmm/GNOME applications.
• Bakery gives your application structure.
• Bakery provides useful utility classes.

  • Add parameter to the modified signal, and send it whenever it changes. (Murray Cumming)

Glom 0.8.7

Glom

Glom is a GUI that allows you to design database table definitions and the relationships between them. It also allows you to edit and search the data in those tables. The design is loosely based upon FileMaker Pro, with the added advantage of separation between user interface and data.

Glom uses the PostgresSQL database backend but it can not edit databases that it did not create, because it uses only a simple subset of Postgres functionality.

Here are some screenshots:
http://www.glom.org/screenshots/

Glom is written in C++, with gtkmm, Bakery, and libgdamm.

More information is at
http://www.glom.org

Obvious/Known problems.

• There is no way to administer the users.
• The User Level is not dependent on database access rights.
• The Details view should show lists of related records directly among the regular fields.
• There is no printing/reports.
