    <p>I would say yes, but I have a different perspective than a Java-environment guy, because I'm a .NET-environment guy. I had written and maintained a non-trivial build script (clean, generate-assembly-info, build, test, coverage, analysis, package) in msbuild (MS' XML-driven NAnt effort) and it was very painful:</p> <ul> <li>XML isn't friendly; it's very noisy</li> <li>No-one else on the team was interested in learning it to the point of performing more, and more useful, automations; so high bus factor (ie, if I get hit by a bus, they're stuck with it)</li> <li>It did not lend itself to refactoring or improvement - it was one of those 'touch-at-your-peril' things, you know?</li> <li>It needed custom C# tasks to be written to run the various tools the build needed (though to be fair, often these are written by the vendors)</li> </ul> <p>In about a work-week's worth of my time (got to love empty offices at Christmas time!), I've learned enough ruby+rake to replace the whole thing with a shorter (in terms of LOC) script with slightly more functionality, and more understandability (I hope, anyhow; haven't had it reviewed yet).</p> <p>It benefits from: - It's a new language, but a real language. My team-mates like learning new languages, and this, while a thin excuse, is still an excuse ;-) This might mitigate the bus-factor if I'm right. - It's a short hop (I gather) from here to capistrano, the automated/remote/distributed deployment tool from the RoR world. Despite being an MS-stack shop, we're gonna be using that in combination with IIS7 finally having a CLI config tool.</p> <p>So, yeah. Your mileage may vary, but it was worth it for me.</p>

A row detail

Detail views are divided into sections. All the information in the data section comes from columns in the selected row. The other sections display data from other, related rows.

Related data can be related in a to-one or a to-many fashion. Captions of data related in a to-many fashion link to a list view showing a filtered view of the table.

Try moving around until you find a non-empty to-many entry and click on the label to get to one. You can move back to the root by clicking on the database name in the header.

SQuiL has stopped working due to an internal error.

If you are curious you may find further information in the browser console, which is accessible through the devtools (F12).
