Differrence about ODAC vs dbExpress and which is recommend?

[akit3210]

Hi,

We use delphi 7 with BDE connection to Oracle10gR2
and almost recently We almost found problem about BDE driver insufficient to support application (Error such as access violation memory and we can't tuning BDE more than limit)

So, we find alternative way to connect Oracle from Delphi.

My understand is ODAC DevArt is custom of ODAC standard from oracle and bundle with
custom Component. It's true?

ODAC standard from Oracle can't use in Delphi?

and About dbExpress just driver to connect?

We should be choose which one between DevArt ODAC cs dbExpress for Oracle?

Please recommend.

Thank you

hello,

To work with Oracle in Delphi, you can use both our products ODAC www.devart.com/odac/ and dbExpress driver for Oracle www.devart.com/dbx/oracle/ .
Since the dbExpress driver is limited by the dbExpress technology functionality, using ODAC is preferable, as it has much more Oracle features implemented.
