Re: [DUG] Firbird from Delphi

One of the (many?) downsides to using the Delphi IB components is that newer release's will not support Firebird.  Apparently Borland and the guys behind IBX have both stated that current support is incidental and will not be maintained.    As Firebird is in direct competition with IB I suspect Borland would be happy for IBX to stop supporting Firebird.  I have the IBObjects trial and they look really good so far.   Rob Martin Software Engineer   phone 03 377 0495 fax 03 377 0496    web www.chreos.com ----- Original Message ----- From: Jeremy Coulter To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] Sent: Thursday, February 19, 2004 7:36 AM Subject: [DUG] Firbird from Delphi HI all. Like Robert I have been looking at Firbird. I have found a couple of tools to increase my Database port time, and now have all my database converted over etc.   But now comes the point where I want to start to use the db in Delphi. There was some discussion and I think someone said, as di Rob, that IBObjects looks good.   What about the Interbase controls that are in Delphi 7? I have used these to connect to the DB already, so are they ok? They dont need the BDE installed too do they? How do they perform?     Cheers,   Jeremy Coulter     ------------------------------------------------------------------------ All email scanned with Nortons Antivirus 2003 ------------------------------------------------------------------------   _______________________________________________ Delphi mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://ns3.123.co.nz/mailman/listinfo/delphi
