Objectives

SQL Admin is a Java client application to connect and send queries to different databases through JDBC.
The main idea is to create a multiplatform and multidatabase thin client. For example you can connect to an Microsoft SQL Server from a Linux machine, or connect to a PostgreSQL/Linux server from a windows machine using the same application

A note about SQLAdmin branches

There is an stable version of SQLAdmin using the Swing Toolkit. Currently a new version is under development, but we have replaced Swing toolkit by the new SWT toolkit (See SWT in The Eclipse Proyect).
This page is focused only in new developments (SWT Version)

Features

SQL is a simple tool, but it has nice features:

Based on the SWT Tookit. Java applications can use the native Toolkit with a platform independant API. For example, SQLAdmin uses GTK2 in Linux
Lightweight : The application itself is small, and the SWT provides a nice gui with a very small footprint
Abstract JDBC driver backend. User should configure only basic parameters like server, port, and login without the need to know about Class names or JDBC URL's
Graphical view of connections and database metadata such as schemas, tables and fields
Multiple query execution. Also supports embedded comments on SQL Text
Log window to view system messages and query results
Table structure view
Fast table rows view

To Do

New developers are always welcome... here there are some needed features:

Save Query View
Asyncrhronous queries
Text views such as XML or plain text output
SQL Syntax Highlighting
