Description Rodrigo Moya 2002-04-16 12:58:07 UTC
To avoid nasty problems with user-defined SQL code in Gnumeric
spreadsheets, we should open connections in the GDA plugin in read-only
mode, so that only SELECT commands work, and no unsollicited changes happen
in the database.

This depends on bug #78845
Comment 1 Jody Goldberg 2002-12-28 07:58:44 UTC
Jon Kare fixed this in 1.1
Comment 2 Rodrigo Moya 2002-12-28 15:26:52 UTC
This still depends on the implementation of the read-onlyness in some
libgda providers (bug #78845), although, yes, for the Gnumeric part,
that's all.
