Title: Author: Publisher: ISBN: Info: |
Advanced Delphi Developer's Guide to ADO Alex Fedorox and Natalia Elmanova Wordware 1556227582 500 pages (CD-ROM) |
Based on the title of this Delphi and ADO book: Advanced Delphi Developer's Guide to ADO (from Alex Fedorox and Natalia Elmanova), I expected "only" coverage of ADOExpress in Delphi.
However, that's only a part of this book.
The book consists of 23 chapters, starting with the Microsoft Data Access Components (MDAC), OLE DB Providers, ADO and its role in the Delphi Database Architecture.
ADOExpress components like TADOCOnnection, TADOCommand, TADODataSet etc. are covered in a lot of detail - as expected.
However, apart from these "basics", the book also contains chapters that explain how to actually build ADO Applications, and how to do Business Graphics and Reporting with ADO.
Even after those chapter, we're only still halfway the book.
Further topics include OLAP and ADO, ADOX in Delphi, JRO Objects, and a very helpful chapter on deploying ADO applications.
Chapter 19 and later introduce Distributed Computing; Windows DNA (Distributed interNet Applications), including RDS and MTS with ADO.
There's even a chapter on MIDAS ADO Applications.
There are also a number of appendices; and the most interesting one covers BDE to ADO migration issues!
