Xdobry uses many additional tcl libraries intensively:

        1. [xotcl]
        1. [tix]
        1. [tdom]
        1. database interfaces [mysqltcl] [sqlite] [tclodbc] [postgres] [oratcl] (odbc is supported only on Windows now)

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

Xdobry is developed with [XOTclIDE]

Up version 0.40 xdobry allows to design database schemas.
It also can migrate schema and data betwenn all supported databases.
It can dump every database to independent xml-dump and import it into every supported database.
Therefore xdobry can be good used for migrating databases in every direction.

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 slavic languages).
I have thought 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 most.
