- pgExpress Driver PGEDemo Demo
- Vita Voom Software
- -----------------------------------------------------------------------
- This is a simple demo that shows how to access a PostgreSQL database
- using the pgExpress driver, using a client dataset, a SQL dataset and
- a provider.
-
- There are two versions: VCL, for Delphi 6-9, and CLX, for Delphi 6-7
- or Kylix. The porting is simple, but we have it here for convenience.
-
- Notes:
- 1) For Kylix/Delphi portibility reasons, this demo Uses the CLX, not
- VCL. It might look "flickering" for VCL users. The code is similar,
- however.
- 2) Kylix and Delphi 6 do not have the TSimpleDataset component. Delphi
- 7 has TSQLClientDataset but it's on a Demos dir and not installed
- by default (Borland has discontinuated it's use). The most portable
- way to do this demo is the one presented: using a client dataset, a
- SQL dataset and a DatasetProvider.
- 3) Do not edit the pg_type table presented by default. It is a system
- table and you could be damaging your database system.
