Xdobry use intensive many additional tcl libraries:

  1. xotcl
  2. tix
  3. tdom
  4. database interfaces mysqltcl sqlite tclodbc (odbc is supported only on Windows now)

With embedded database sqlite it can be used without additional relational database.

Xdobry is developed with XOTclIDE

Now xdobry in this state do not allow to build or design new database. Xdobry can read the schema of existing database and produce forms for it. The main benefits of this programm are hight conceptional level of produced forms that supports aggregation, inheriance, relationships (1:n and n:m) and additional metainformation (description, contrains). Xdobry was written as practical part of academic study ("germ. Diplomarbeit") and is still in development state.

Some info about the name of application. "dobry" means "good" in my native language polish (also in many other slave languages). I have thougt earlier that the 2 character "DB" can be also assiociated with "DataBase" and X with GUI. Unfortunately the name seems to be very strange for all.
