IDAC is a software that lets you develop Informix access applications in the common BDE style, with reliability and usability. It is a great alternative to BDE and ADO, especially for BDE migration and quick client-server and n-tier development.
The component set offers several features and benefits that make it a top choice for developers. Firstly, the well-known BDE-like interface with a familiar set of components, such as Query, Table, UpdateSQL, etc. ensures easy usage. Additionally, the absence of BDE, ADO or dbExpress means that there is no need to use any intermediate layer (with its own bugs) to work with Informix, improving performance and reliability.
The components also offer full data type support, allowing developers to work with any data type provided by Informix database server, including new data types of 9.xx family (BLOB/CLOB, LVARCHAR, etc.). With connection pool and SQL cache features, comprehensive features designed to increase performance of application servers and standalone applications, developers can be assured of optimal performance.
Advanced development is made possible with Object Pascal translation of Informix connectivity API and diagnostic structures that allow developers to easily create applications with advanced features. Furthermore, query execution break gives applications more control over the database communication while still being user-friendly. Lastly, easy deployment is made possible as all Informix connectivity parameters can be defined through TIfxConnection parameters, without needing to configure the Informix client.
Overall, Luxena Informix Data Access Components is a highly recommended software solution for developers who want optimal performance and advanced features for their applications.
