If you plan to use a database developed
under Delphi or C++ Builder application and do not like to use BDE (Borland Database Engine) for it, you have
gotten into the right place.
ODBC Database Engine. The shareware component set is a package that
combines all design benefits of Database Engine components and performance of ODBC data access.
Using ODBC API is not that simple. ODBC Database Engine is your ticket to high-performance in database access! ODBC Database
Engine bypasses the BDE completely and compiles into your application - no more DLLs to distribute! ODBC Database
Engine was designed for the express purpose of writing large, responsive, industrially-strong data access applications.
ODBC Database Engine has features you can only dream about in the BDE:
You can manipulate blob fields just as easily and in the same way as any other field in the database.
Handling an integrated stored procedure is easy and works in the same way as any other query. Limitations introduced by the BDE
are also bypassed. While the BDE makes use of the lowest common denominator approach when it comes to certain data access
aspects, ODBC Database Engine is based on the openness, flexibility and power of ODBC. The functional programming approach also
makes it much easier to debug your applications.
What makes ODBC Database Engine even more impressive is its speed advantage over the BDE. No more layers of
translations between the BDE and ODBC drivers. Instead, pure native ODBC calls are made. The best yet is that the ODBC Database
Engine library is compiled into your executable.
Registration is available at 99 USD.
