[gnome-db] gda_connection_supports

[Neil Zanella <nzanella gmail com>]

Hello,

Could someone please explain to me the following design decision:

The gda_connection_supports function takes a connection object as a parameter.
However, to know whether a connection supports SQL it should be
sufficient to ask
the provider without having to connect. Otherwise, to present to the
user a list of
providers which support SQL, I have to establish a connection for each of them,
which seems unreasonable. Could anyone please explain here... and how should
I solve the issue of presenting to the user only providers which support SQL and
not others so that the user may select from a _correct_ set of providers.

Thanks,

Neil
