Which database type?

Mensaje por Mahanimann »

Hi,
When the main concern is to develop apps as rapid as possible, i.e. utilize
the most of Xailers built-in time-saving possibilities: Does it matter
which type of database and/or index/memotype you use?
Thanks for any feedback,
Paal

If you use 'datacontrols' then should be very similar on using anyone
database engine.

Yes, you are right. I've spent a lot of hours with Xailer the last days and
are pretty impressed with the possibilities for rapid development. For now I
only miss specific samples demonstrating ways of doing typical routines like
look-up in other tables, quick, generic ways of filling combox/listbox
itemlists from tables etc.
About database type, I'm going for SQL Client/Server (MySQL for now) because
I consider .DBF's on a fileserver too "dangerous". (I don't think this is
..DBF's fault, I've found strange beahviour concerning locking and commits on
both Windows (all flavours) and Linux (via Samba on Xandros and Suse)
fileservers.)
Thanks for your reply.
