It would be very good to have another Glorp solution with a pure Smalltalk implemented DB driver, like the PostgresV2 one. IMHO this is way less error prone than the whole library/driver/.. mess on all these different platform.Since our Glorp refactor back years ago...adding a Glorp adaptor (DatabaseDriver subclasses) should be very very easy. So yes, it would be nice to do it for the MySQL driver...but I thought we already had that...
Me and some other students made an adaptator for the MySQL Driver written in smalltalk based on the one for PostgresV2, you can find it here: http://smalltalkhub.com/#!/~ThomasHeniart/GlorpDriverMySQL
There is a method NativeMySQLDriver>>beGlorpDefaultDriver to use it as native driver for glorp.
We posted it on the mailing list one and a half month ago ^^
