Direct access to MySQL in version 6.4.14

[Emil1957]

After I have updated to version 6.4.14 I miss the specific option "Direct" for the MySQL provider (for MSSQL, Oracle...it is stll there).

We have removed the specific option "Direct" for the MySQL provider, because all the functionality of our components is supported in Direct Mode, and performance is higher in comparison to using client library. Some features are not supported not in Direct Mode.

Thank you for the information,

does this mean that no "MySQL client dll" is necessary on the local computer?

[ViktorV]

Yes, UniDAC connects to MySQL server directly in Direct Mode, avoiding MySQL client library.

I run in the same problem and found the solution here. But in the current helpfile, "Direct" is still listed as provider specifc option for MySql, so you should remove that.

Thank you for information. We will make changes in UniDAC help.
