Why Not Use the BDE
|
Previous Top Next |
· | BDE versions conflict. If a user has another BDE-based application which uses another version of BDE, it can conflict with your application.
|
· | Large size of software distribution. Deployment of the BDE leads to a multi-megabyte installation file. This is especially important when software is expected to be downloaded by customers.
|
· | Special installation and configuration. The BDE drivers require installation and aliases configuration before your application can use it.
|
· | DLLs. You may need deployment without DLLs, while the BDE requires driver DLLs.
