Zeos Controls and Zeos DBO

[pfaf]

I have used Zeos Controls (ZeosCtrls) with Zeos DBO version 5.x and I know they are compatible.

Has anybody used ZeosDBO version 6.x with Zeos Controls?

If yes, which versions?

Thank you,

Panos.

Sorry, the Zeos Controls are not compatible to Zeos DBO 6.x.

I have converted some of the controls long time ago i was mostly interested in the ZFindDialog but i also have ZParser, ZHexGrid and ZDataGrid, i will have a look at them and they will probably be uploaded somewhere for everybody to download, they do not work in Lazarus as i didn't even know it existed at the time but i don't think that will be hard to do.

Hi Lightning ,

if you find out that they will work good, please open a new thread in the 6.x User-Contribution-Forum and attach them as a zipped file. Just to keep them here Maybe we can put them into the download-area.

Why don't you develop the Controls anoymore?

Could you advise me a good and smart dbgrid from anywhere, what is compatible with ZDBO?

[mdaems]

Yeah, guess why...
I think it's mainly the lack of developers. If you feel like starting a new components team, I don't think anybody would object, but for now we can't do it ourselves. Just give me a pm and we talk about it.

There are quite a lot of components available that work well with TDatasets. They should be compatible with ZeosDbo. I don't have a lot of experience with them. So let's see who else reacts.

Unfortunately i don't have enough skill to develop a good component, rather i would use it.

OK, let's wait. I tried to find a good one, but the best i found fits up the SQL request with a SORT BY. And i think these repeated requests load the network traffic unnecessary.

Hello everybody, it's my first post here.

I use TJvDBUltimaGrid and TJvDBGrid from JEDI JVCL library with no problem. The link is http://delphi-jedi.org/.

At this point I would say hello to everyone here. The ZEOS project is great, I use this library with Delphi 7 for connecting to MySQL for a long time. I am in preparations to migrate to Firebird 2. I check forum daily and it's really nice to have people here talking about everything concernig ZEOS.

I agree with gury, TJvDBUltimGrid is an excelent component. Beside that, the JEDI VCL project has tons of excelent components.

Yes, it has TONS of components.

What is the difference between TJvDBUltimGrid and TJvDBGrid?

[trob]

Sorry for the question, but i have to ask it.

Which is the better? Which is smarter? Your ZQuery or Jedi's JvQuery?

[Jay]

Jedi's JvQuery is a descendent on delphi's TQuery which depends on the BDE, which means that BDE MUST be installed along with your application.

The main reason you would use Zeos or any other data access components is precisely not to depend on the BDE and have a "Native" access to the database that you are connecting to.

What Zeos data access components give you in comparison to other native data access components, is the ability to connect to different databases without having to use different components since most native data access components only connect to one specific database.

Thank You!
So, i remain at ZQuery.
