Re: Book recommendations for database development

Basically it works like this. When a user enters data in via a TEdit box or something
you pass the value into your Class. You then serialize that object (Class instance) across
your TCP (TIndy) connection to your Application Server (a TCP socket server you
developed). That server reconstructs the data back into an object (does some work on
it maybe) to which it then serializes to your database vencdor (ms, mysql, firebird, etc..)

This serialization to the database vendor is easy using libraries that abstract the different
database vendors. There are somethings to be aware of course...



I am doing this same thing. I use kbmMemTable when I need to use datasets for reports or data aware grids and just fill it with my objects.

Speaking of which, does anyone have any experience with devExpress grid and binding it to either delphi tlist type structures or C++ SQL structures? I'd like to get rid of the dataset layer altogether.
