The Remote Data Access Library is a set of components for retrieving data remotely using TCP/IP from a server running the Borland Database Engine. This enables the programmer to use Delphi to write a thin client that does not require the BDE or any other database connectivity. The library components provide full support for Delphi's data aware components. Datasets equivalent to Delphi's TTable and TQuery are provided to build the client, and a powerful multi-threaded server component is provided to automate all the functionality of a middle-tier that can receive requests from the client and process them, relieving the programmer of the task of having to write code for the server. No royalties for deploying the client or the server. A great alternative to Delphi's MIDAS. All components are 100% Delphi VCL; no extra DLLs or ActiveX components are required.
