 |
|
Hi,
I just tried to connect with D6 to a remote MySQL 4.0 server. I
finally found that two year old beta version of a driver on the
Borland site. Seems to be the same problem as with the Oracle driver.
Now what is the best thing to do?
- Buy the Corelab driver and stay with dbExpress ?
- Look at the Zeos components?
- other solution ?
thank you for any advice to this matter.

If you buy the crlab's driver you don't need to interact with dbexpress. The |
connection is direct I think this is the best idea.

Also a nice freeware product. I had some problems though and I quit on it. |
But I might have used an old version... I don't know.

I wouldn't look further. But I read somewhere here in the newsgroups that |
there is another company which produces commercial drivers like crlab, but i
can;t recall the name.

I went with SciBit's components. They're just OK but MUCH better then
the Borland dbExpress Driver. If I were starting a MySQL project from
scratch I'd have a serious look at Zeos.

Hello,
if dbExpress technology isn't too important
for you please pay your attention to MyDAC
([url]http://crlab.com/mydac/)[/url]. I advise you to
use MyDAC as dbExpress technology has some
errors and moreover, MyDAC gives you much
more features.
If you have any further questions, please send
us an e-mail to [email]mydac (AT) crlab (DOT) com[/email]
Best regards,
Vladimir Zheleznyak, CoreLab team
