CDS ADQL Library v1.0 released

[Grégory Mantelet]

Dear Applications-List,

     The CDS ADQL Library is now released in a stable version 1.0 !

     You can get it and its documentation at the following address: 
http://cdsportal.u-strasbg.fr/adqltuto/

     This Java library lets you parse, manipulate and translate any ADQL 
query. You will find a demonstration of the main features at: 
http://cdsportal.u-strasbg.fr/adqltuto/demo.html.

     All of them are customizable, and particularly the translation 
which strongly depends of your DBMS (or of the way you want to execute 
ADQL). For the moment, only the Postgres and Postgres+PgSphere 
translations are included in the library. But you can easily extend them 
or create new translation thanks to a simple interface: see 
http://cdsportal.u-strasbg.fr/adqltuto/translator.html for more details. 
If you do it for other DBMS, it could be useful for other people, so you 
can send it to me so that I add it to the library or on the website.

     The parser has been generated thanks to JavaCC (a Java parser 
generator). The grammar definition file can be downloaded from the 
following page: http://cdsportal.u-strasbg.fr/adqltuto/download.html. 
You can also download a Javascript ADQL editor (using CodeMirror) which 
only adds syntactic coloration for the moment, but an auto-completion 
may be added if I have some time to work on it.

     If you encounter errors or problems while using this library do not 
hesitate to contact me.

Cheers,
Grégory
