BDP and VCL.Net personality

[Richard Guillen]

Hi,

I using BDP in my ASP.NET projects and all work fine, but I try to use it
with VCL.Net project and ins't there a way to show data in the data contols
component.

Can't I use BDP in VCL.Net personality?

Do you show me a example VCL.NET database application with BDP?

I using Delphi 2005 Enterprise and Oracle 10G database.

Thanks.

Richard.

Two different technologies. The BDP classes are based on ADO.Net and use
.Net databinding. They know nothing about the VCL, specifically about
TComponent, and so cannot be dropped on VCL forms or datamodules. VCL
controls, although compiled to be usable under .Net, require
TDataset/TDatasource classes to hook up to and know nothing about .Net
databinding.

You can still use BDP, but there is more manual work - the BDP components
must be created and configured in code instead of on a design-time surface.
You can drop TListConnectors (under the DataAccess tab) which is a TDataset
descendant you can hook a normal TDatasource and data-aware controls to,
then at runtime, link its DataObject property to any .Net component that
implements IBindingList (.Net Dataset, etc.).
