Fri, May 19 2006 8:28 AM | Permanent Link |
"Ulrich Kobsa" | Hi,
is there a working sample howto setup a C/S system ? some concrete questions: - what's the use of the delivered server dbsrvr? It runs but how can I register a database on it ? - I have a programm using a local database and want to enable it to work also with a remote database. Are there any suggestions what are minimal steps to do so? Any hints what to look for to avoid traps? Thanks in advance, Ulrich -- |

<< is there a working sample howto setup a C/S system ? >> See this thread for instructions. I've posted a very basic sample in the Binaries newsgroup entitled "Simple C/S Application". << - what's the use of the delivered server dbsrvr? >> It's the database server. << It runs but how can I register a database on it ? >> You can do so programmatically: http://www.elevatesoft.com/dbisam4d5_server_administration.htm or you can do so via the Server Administration Utility, which is provided in the Additional Software and Utilities download: http://www.elevatesoft.com/scripts/download.dll?action=downinfo&producttype=add&version=4 << - I have a programm using a local database and want to enable it to work also with a remote database. Are there any suggestions what are minimal steps to do so? Any hints what to look for to avoid traps? >> 1) Drop a TDBISAMSession component on your form or data module. Make sure that you've set: SessionType:=stRemote RemoteAddress:=<IP Address of computer where the database server is running> SessionName:='Remote' (doesn't matter what you set here, just set something) 2) Make sure that all TDBISAM* components have their SessionName property set to 'Remote' also. 3) Make sure that you set the TDBISAMDatabase.RemoteDatabase property to a valid database name on the database server. This database name must be defined on the database server (using the Server Administration Utility or the administrative functionality in DBISAM in the above link) *before* you can access the data in that database. That's all you need to do to get a basic application running. The rest is identical to local operation. If you have any other questions, please let me know. -- Tim Young Elevate Software www.elevatesoft.com |
