Apollo

Apollo

Postby MarcoBoschi » Fri Apr 15, 2016 4:20 pm

Hi,
someone can tell me if apollodb can be used by a xHarbour / Fivewin program.
From what I read in http://www.apollodb.com the answer is no.
I wrote two days ago but no answer.

In other words I will open, read and edit my original dbf tables through their apollodbserver? (server side)
But what about my xHarbour/Fivewin program? (client side)

Many thanks to all
marco

As I recall, many many years ago Apollo was able to work with the commercial version of xharbour, but perhaps not.

I would be curious if it would work with a Harbour version ... built using MSVC and Harbour ...

Of course if you can't get an answer from them .....

Hello Marco,
I am not clear if you want to link in Apollo in a Fivewin program or if you want to connect to dbf/cdx from another language.
I used VB6 / VB.net with Apollo simultaneously with my FIVEWIN program without any problems. But direct access not the database server.
Best regards,
Otto

Otto,

Did you use Apollo with FWH ? Which compiler ( Pelles, Borland, MSVC ) ?

I would want to use FWH with Harbour and MSVC and work with the Apollo server ... which would provide me some nice distribution options.

It's sad they have not replied to this question.

Otto,
sometimes I think that if a customer asks to me to work with my fivewin programs from several remote locations througth vpn slow speed I have no solution. Probably Apollo is a product that allows remote access to data. Only apporting little modifications in my software if the dbf tables are local to client in which exe is running there is a direct access to dbf tables otherwise requests ar managed by Apollo server-side and client- side. At least I hope.

Ruben,

It looks like the site has not been updated in over a year. Is that still an active product ? Have you used it with FWH ? How about data objects ? Are transactions separate or do all database calls need to be revised to the transaction model shown in the FAQ ?

Thanks

Tim, the page is updated. The new version is dated 2016. Include Libs the exes and a manager too.(connection managger)
I'm tesing right now. It's easy to make it wotk.
In my test I did not use data objects till now, I'll will test.
I,m not use transactions now, because I'm just testing. Transactions are supported, look into FAQ.
2.17 b3 version is the last (2016). I believe that this project is alive.

Ruben,

Thanks for the info. At first reading the FAQ, it seemed like you could just add in the RDD and all would work, but then it showed the Transaction sample and I didn't understand if that meant all the code had to be written that way.

I am also curious about performance. The discussion on setup for the server shows it can have problems and slow down significantly. I hope you will share what you find.

Ruben,
is it possible to download two exe files?
Server Side: the server and Client Side such as a browse of a dbf table?
I'm curious to try it through a vpn

Many thanks
