Suitability?
Posted: Thu 10 Apr 2008 22:49
I have a Windows service that acts as a proxy between network clients and a MySQL database.
It's written in BCB6 (would be converted to BCB2007 for this), and currently uses ADO with MyODBC.
I'm trying to make it more reliable, and given that COM makes things pretty flaky in threads, I figured taking COM out of the equation would be a step in the right direction.
So, would this library be suitable for a service which handles a couple hundred connections at once, with each connection on a separate thread (each thread gets its own DB connection)?
Will I even be able to test this with the trial version? It indicates the the IDE is required, which doesn't work for a service.
