Editor's review
UniDAC is a powerful library of non-visual cross-database data access components for Delphi, Delphi for .NET, and C++Builder. The unified access is available for Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, InserBase, and Firebird databases.
Features: UniDAC offers a unified approach to database-related applications development process. With this you can switch easily between different databases in your projects. Using UniDAC with its server-independent interface is a simple way to create cross-database applications. It is a library of components. These components provide data access components for Delphi, Delphi for.NET and C++ Builder. Unified access is possible with these components with such diverse databases as Oracle, Microsoft SQL Server, MySQL, PostgreSQL, InserBase, and Firebird. Latest versions of these servers are supported, the database being quite transparent once you connect through these components. It supports all standard and third party data-aware controls. The program supports latest IDE versions and VCL and VCL NET libraries are available. Connection management are quite advanced, are high performance and supports all standard and third party data aware controls. Advanced connection pooling facilities are available. You are able to monitor command execution. Scripting is provided by Uniscript. Unicode and national charset supports available. Metadata can be retrieved, macros in SQL are supported. UniDAC chooses the best way specific to the server to perform most operations. Every UniDAC data provider uses server-specific native connectivity. All operations with data are performed by providers automatically considering the selected database server peculiarities. The goal of UniDAC is to enable developers to write efficient and flexible database applications. The UniDAC library is implemented using advanced data access algorithms and optimization techniques. Classes and components undergo comprehensive performance tests and are designed to help you write high-performance, lightweight data access layers. The UniDAC interface retains compatibility with the standard VCL data access components like BDE. Existing BDE-based applications can be easily migrated to UniDAC and enhanced to take advantage of the server-specific features.
Overall: An extensive library that makes database agnostic design easy. Quite a useful package of code.
