MyDAC is a library that allows easy access to MySQL and Mariadb from Delphi and C++Builder, including Community Edition, as well as Lazarus on Windows, Linux, macOS, iOS, and Android.
With MyDAC, programmers can enable their applications to connect directly to the MySQL server or work through the MySQL client library, providing more flexibility in development. It's an alternative to the Borland Database Engine (BDE) and the standard dbExpress driver for MySQL connectivity, and it presents a complete replacement for these solutions.
Key features of MyDAC include support for RAD Studio 11 Alexandria Release 2, Lazarus 2.2.2, iOS 15, and Android 12. Other supported platforms include Windows 11 and macOS Monterey. MyDAC offers basic MySQL connectivity components, as well as direct MySQL connectivity. Developers can use MyDAC for all IDEs, from Delphi 6 to the latest RAD Studio.
The software also offers high-performance DML batch updates, full MySQL data type support, timely and professional customer support, on-demand night builds with fixes, and support for mobile application development. With MyDAC, you can take advantage of high-performance fill database via TMSLoader, extended support for MySQL-specific functionality, advanced dataset management features, and source code. Finally, Lazarus and Free Pascal support is included.
If you're looking for a reliable solution for direct MySQL connectivity, MyDAC is a solid choice. Keep in mind that you can always find the latest version of the product on the official Devart website.
