\nTOKYO (MacHouse) – There was a desktop application called ViewSQL Pro<\/strong> that was distributed through Apple<\/strong>‘s Mac App Store<\/strong> till a few years ago. Personally, I still use it to examine SQLite data though it’s outdated. It’s stable and runs under Yosemite with no problem. It’s a pity that it doesn’t let you alter records. Hmm… Maybe, I can upgrade ViewSQL Pro. So I’ve spent the last 10 days or so working on a major upgrade. I’ve also changed the name. What I submitted to Mac App Store several hours ago is called FireSQL 3<\/strong>.

\nWhat’s New?<\/u><\/p>\n

    \n
  1. The user can rename and delete existing tables. Insert new tables to the selected database.<\/li>\n
  2. Alter records manually. The user can also change blob data with a new picture of their selection.<\/li>\n
  3. View blob data as a picture.<\/li>\n
  4. Run a search for partial matches by selecting a field.<\/li>\n
  5. Let the application store SQL statements for creating SQLite database files.<\/li>\n
  6. Delete a record of your selection.<\/li>\n
  7. It’s finally a Cocoa application. ViewSQL Pro wasn’t.<\/li>\n<\/ol>\n

    <\/b>
    \n<\/b>
    \nFeatures<\/u><\/p>\n

      \n
    1. Drag and drop an SQLite database file directly onto application’s main window to read data.<\/li>\n
    2. Rename and delete tables.<\/li>\n
    3. Insert new tables to your database.<\/li>\n
    4. Delete the record of your selection.<\/li>\n
    5. Create and save an SQLite database file to your disk. Apply data contraints such as primary key, not null, auto increment, unique to fields.<\/li>\n
    6. Store database creation settings with an outline view.<\/li>\n
    7. Edit a database record manually.<\/li>\n
    8. View blob data as a picture. Save blob data as a picture your disk.<\/li>\n
    9. Change blob data with a picture of your selection.<\/li>\n

    15. The application supports the retina screen. (tested with 2014 2.6 GHz 13″ MacBook Pro)<\/li>\n

        \nLimitations<\/u><\/p>\n

          \n

            \n
          1. Fix: When the user chose Save Picture As under View to save blob data as a picture to their disk, the application did not optimize the picture for the retina display.<\/li>\n
          2. When the user deletes a record, the application will now selects the next record automatically when possible.<\/li>\n
