RussianQuestion
I was reading the Embarcadero FireMonkey literature and it lists a lot of db platforms, but not PostgreSQL. Is there a way to build a cross-platform PostgreSQL Delphi application?
Solution
Delphi XE2 includes the dbExpress ODBC driver which can be used with the PostgreSQL ODBC driver for access this database. Unfortunally the dbExpress ODBC driver only supports windows (for now).
For cross-platform development you can try the PgDAC component from DevArt
PgDAC is a cross-platform solution for developing applications using various IDEs: RAD Studio, Delphi, C++Builder, Lazarus (and FPC) on Windows, Mac OS X, iOS, Linux, and FreeBSD for both x86 and x64 platforms. PgDAC also provides support for the FireMonkey platform, which allows you to develop visually spectacular high-performance native applications for Windows and Mac OS X.
