Advantage TDataset Descendent for Lazarus

It knows the Ads4Lazarus, version of the Advantage TDataset Descendent, now ported to lazarus/freepascal.

Who does not know, these components is like the TTable, TQuery of the Bde of delphi.

These components have access the AdvantageDatabase, that can function in server mode or local mode.

Knows more on this excellent data base in http://devzone.advantagedatabase.com/

There it will find satiated documentation on the data base and some components of access, including driver to ODBC, PHP. Net, and others.

In local mode, you it can use without limitation, since that the archives are had access directly. Any indirect access in local mode, is breaking of the license of the AdvantageDatabase, currently kept for the Sybase Anywhere.

ads4lazarus is a in progress work, therefore it must before use be tested in production environment.

The components are multiplatform, function in windows and linux.

The following components are ported:



TAdsTable
TAdsQuery
TAdsConnection
TAdsSettings
TAdsStoreProc

TAdsBatchMove (Somente windows)

Reference ads Version: 9.10.0.9

I only used in local mode, and the basic components that are the TAdsQuery, TAdsTable, TAdsConnection, TAdsSettings. The other components I not yet tested, therefore I did not find necessary.

I wait that this work is useful for you, developer.

Atention:

Read the Advantage user license.
