If so, can you take a minute to explain how to use it ?
I asked the documentation, but nothing obvious comes to my mind.
Just curious about the concept.
I gave it a try today. I could connect to a mySQL non-secure Test-Server within the Xojo IDE, but it did not display any Table from the configured Database.
Then i disconnected and re-connected and the connection could not be established again… 
Because we use secure connections to all our Databases and because i feel far more limited with those new Classes, i will not use them.
The (now by Xojo so called) “old” connections work just fine in all cases here. 
Thank you for your feedback.
That ws the part I needed more information (but for SQLite).
During the beta phase, it worked well with a test server like this. I was able to establish a connection in the IDE and inspect the tables. However, as I mentioned, we use encrypted connections and these are not supported (who secures their data these days? 
), so I didn’t do any further testing.
But I’m convinced that if it works, this will be a great extension for database newbies.
I have absolutely no use for it, and don’t expect I ever will. There is much greater flexibility in not having to define a connection in the project.

So, I can forget about that feature.
Thank you all.
I’ve made a prototype for a user with DatabaseConnection before build with no problem. But when build App crash !
In public release the sqlite debate was put inside the ressources folder of the App. You have to copy it to another folder and point to it.
That’s why I said in tests that it should be postponed until all the rough edges and necessary things for beginners were in place. Now we have something PROs don’t use, and rookies will have trouble.
What is in the crash log?
The App won’t find the database (placed in Resources folder inside the App, but try to access the full path used in IDE)
So not a crash but just an exception.

This reminds me something…
