[REQUEST] DBX Driver for PostgreSQL

Post by Michel Moreira » Tue 18 Dec 2007 14:59

Hi!

How about an driver for PostgreSQL? You are the reference on DBX drivers, but lacks on a postgresql one.

With the advent of a native postgresql server on Win32, postgresql is growing every day... but the win32 delphi support (dbexpress and oledb provider) is too imature... the option is or a VCL suite (postgresDAC, very good for the ones that dont need an multi-db approach) or the vitavoom driver (only supports DBX 3).

Especially that vitavoom is known for its postgresql dbx driver, but it doesnt works in compatibility mode on Codegear 2007, and the last update was on Apr 04... they seems to dont be worried on the hurry of their customers, and we want to have all of our dbxpress drivers from corelab, which is an company that cares about your customers (currently we owns the oracle, mysql and mssql drivers from corelab).

so... I think that PostgreSQL is an area that lacks options and that corelab can have this market... or good part of it.

thanks in advance!
