Delphi/2010 and dbISAM |

Aage Johansen | We've been using v4.22b6 for a long time now with D/2006 (and D/6 before
that) - we started with v.3 around 2002. Now that I've installed D/2010 I would like to continue using dbISAM. I don't think there ever was a support contract of any kind, and it seems that February 2006 was the last time I downloaded stuff - almost 4 years ago!. We use the C/S version. Now, what would I have to do? 1. Some sort of upgrade to latest version ? 2. Purchase the latest version, download+install ? Converting to ElevateDB may also be a possibility, but for some reasons I'm not looking forward to a conversion and everything that goes with it. I would prefer not to disturb the old D/2006+dbISAM/4.22b6 combo until everything (including other 3rd party component sets) works 100% with D/2010. -- Aage J. |

"Walter Matte" | Starting March 2008 Elevate support changed, read here:
http://www.elevatesoft.com/support.htm Upgrade and get a support plan and you will be able to download DBISAM 4.29 build 2 which has D2010 support without UNICODE. Or look ElevateDB, it has many more features and offers both Unicode or non-unicode support. Or buy both (as I did) and support Elevate in producing great products. Elevate database products.... priceless....

Tim Young [Elevate Software] Elevate Software, Inc. timyoung@elevatesoft.com | Aage,
<< I cannot find any requirement of keeping support plans continuously, so it seems we can just start a support plan at any time. >> Yes, you are absolutely correct. You are free to let your support plan(s) lapse and then renew it/them, as you see fit for your needs. You just simply will not be eligible for email/phone support and minor releases if your support plan is not up-to-date. As for your general concerns: my recommendation would be to stay with DBISAM until you have the time to dedicate to converting to ElevateDB as a primary endeavor. If your primary concern right now is to just move to D2010, then I would stay with DBISAM for such a switch. Then you can investigate using ElevateDB when you have the time to do so. You'll like ElevateDB a lot, I'm sure, but not if you are forced to rush into a conversion to it. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
