The second edition of Tomes of Delphi Win32 Database Developer's Guide is an in-depth guide to developing single and multi-tiered database applications using Borland's Delphi. Delphi is consistently rated as the fastest, easiest-to-use rapid application development (RAD) tool on the market today. The RAD tools native to Delphi are ideal for producing applications by a Delphi database developer.In Part I, Rachele's book lays a foundation of the fundamentals of the relational database system. The relational database model is presented in theoretical terms and later placed into the context of Delphi development. Rounding out Part I is a full discussion of the fundamentals of Structured Query Language (SQL), the language of the relational database market.Part II leads the developer through a complete examination of the database Delphi tools, beginning with a chapter devoted to defining and explaining the core of single-tier database development in Delphi, the Borland Database Engine (BDE). The database explorer, a table viewer integrated into the IDE, is also documented in full for the developer's benefit. The author includes coverage of both visual and non-visual controls native to the Delphi system and discusses each control's methods, properties, and events. Part II also contains coverage of the BDE API functions and the finishing touches for a commercial application.Part III of the book covers advanced database topics applicable to Delphi applications. This is the most important new feature of this revision. Multi-tiered client-server applications are the focus of four chapters. This type of development is more prevalent now, and a Delphi programmer needs these advanceddatabase skills to remain current. The Interbase database that ships with some versions of Delphi is examined in this section, along with third-party database servers. Advanced SQL techniques are also discussed.
