Hi ,

I'm testing data sharing between UniDAC dan ClientDataset.
I perform simple Query using TUniQuery then save the result (not empty
and only a few rows) using method SaveToXML to a path of 'C:\DATA.xml'.

When I open a ClientDataset with Filename property set to the above path,
the process returns message 'Mismatch in datapacket'

Can this be resolved? I really need this scenario to work ...TIA

Hello

UniDAC components and ClisentDataSet save data to the XML format in the different XML structure. If you want to save data from UniQuery to the XML format and load it by ClientDataSet then you should connect ClientDataSet to UniQuery and call the SaveToFile method of the ClientDataSet. In this case data will be stored in the XML format it the structure that can be read by ClientDataSet. If you don't want to use ClientDataSet to save data to the XML format, then you can save data by UniQuery.SaveToXML method but in this case you should write own XML converter from the UniDAC XML format to the ClientDataSet XML format.

Hello again

You're right. Now I understand both are using different XML structure and,
it seems there's really no hope to avoid DatasetProvider
I was just curious if both could share/exchange data independently
(inter-process communication). Anyway, thanks a lot for the reply.
